Why use a generated block pattern?

A sphere is not one circle repeated vertically. Every horizontal slice has a different radius. BlockShape calculates the full 3D voxel volume and displays each build layer in order.

Choose the overall sphere diameter.
Use shell mode for a hollow sphere or filled mode for a solid one.
Start at layer 1 and move upward using the layer controls.

Frequently asked questions

How many layers does the sphere have?

The number of layers equals the selected diameter.

What shell thickness should I use?

One block is efficient for decorative builds. Thicker shells are useful when you need interior walls or a more forgiving construction.

Is the total block count exact?

It is exact for the voxel pattern generated by this tool. Real builds may use extra scaffolding or temporary support blocks.
