Basicly you can design your part and print a 3d model which you can then use for the mold. But I don't think that your joint would require such a procedure. Try looking around for any metal working shops. My uncle teaches an autocad class in Omaha and he told me about this 3d printer that he had used before.

Isn't it really expensive? Where do you find someone like that? What materials can they use? I'd love to have some either cast really large, in bronze, too. I think 125 of these would be a great public sculpture. About 25 feet tall or so, and you could climb around inside and between each one.

It is interesting to think about how it is basicly a cube that has been minimized to simply being support for the holes. Have you thought of having a machinist manufacture 125 of those pieces for you? Nice woodwork.
