Abstract. This paper reports experiments of materializing recent new discovered mathematical surfaces, 3D quasi-Fuchsian fractals. Three different models in glass, plastic, and metal are created to realize rich mathematical properties including self-similarity, 3-embeddable, simply-connected, and complicated surface consisting of infinite number of cusps. Different models can complementary provide mathematicians and anyone unprofessional better understanding of the mathematical properties of the new discovery.
