This is what the Eiffel Tower would look like if Ladybug never fixed it in “The Mime”.

(Software Used: SketchUp Make)

(Eiffel Tower model made and made accessible on the 3D Warehouse by Damo, and modified by yours truly.)

Note: Those thick black lines on the cut don’t actually exist.

Well, I spent some time on this.

This post is somewhat of a “preview”; all this 3D modeling is part of a bigger mlscience calculation. And yes, it is about the Eiffel Tower.

We recently found some wonderful sources for our calculations, mainly Gustave Eiffel’s book “La tour de trois cents mètres”. That discovery was wildly celebrated in the mlscience chat.

(I spent four days trying to understand and execute 3D software for this.)

Update: We’re still not done with this.

Who knew determining exact percentages of the mass lost during the cut was so difficult?

Anyway, if everything goes well, expect a full post to appear by the end of March.

(Shout out to @wikkedwolff for helping with translating some parts of the book, and to @slibinass, who is sharing the neural load with me)

Answer the Miraculers Plotting Project while you wait, if you haven’t already.
