About this model
This series of articulating snakes demonstrates various ways that nTopology can be used to design unique topology within complex designs. See here for video: See here for stable downloads: Serpentes nTopologus Gyroidicus (gyroid): Serpentes nTopologus Hexhoneycombus (Hexagonal Honeycomb): Serpentes nTopologus Voronoicus (Voronoi Volume Infill): These topology snakes use a unique print-in-place ovoid joint designed to maximize available volume and surface area for other design elements. This joint type is stronger than the interlocking double ring joints used in many articulated designs, so this design is more suitable for use as a fidget or children’s toy. These snakes are 72cm in length but will print easily on a 220mm x 220mm build plate. Like a “ball and socket” joint, the oval-shaped o…
