About this model
First I modeled an hexagonal grid covering the surface of a torus. Then I pinched it in one side, and finally introduced a rotation for the section. The basic torus was made with Openscad. Then used Python to change the corner's coordinates with a pinching-and-rotation transformation. Pictures of a print by Shapeways.
