Counting Tower

Ten blocks, 1 to 10, each one unit taller than the last - so 9 on 1, 8 on 2, or 1-2-3-4 stack to exactly the height of the 10. Grooves count the units up every side, a ten-frame on every top, and the child's name up the 10.

Engraved up the front of the 10. Up to 16 letters.

How it's made. Ten PETG blocks, 45 mm square, 12 mm tall per number (the 10 is 120 mm). Each has a low plateau on top that sits in a pocket under the next, so stacks don't slide but no joint adds height - the flat rims meet. The top of every block is a second color with the numeral and a ten-frame cut through it; a groove rings the block at every unit. Made face-down, no supports; one filament change colors all ten faces.
