About this model

This is a fun little toy that folds around and around itself. It's inspired by those paper marketing cubes that you might have seen around. This one snaps together, though the assembly is a bit of a puzzle of its own. If you open up the OpenSCAD file you can play an animation of its movement, which I'm kind of proud of. You can also tweak the parameters of this design in Customizer if you need to.
