Chain Links in two, four and six connector formats. Make lanyards, armor, fabric, geometric shapes, etc.

I created three shapes that can be combined to create various items depending on how they are connected: 1. The ChainMaker01.stl is ideal for making lanyards, necklaces, and bracelets. It has the advantage of creating a lanyard that resists flipping your badge over so your picture ID stays facing outwards. 2. The Quad_Chain_fabric_links.stl is perfect for making cubes, bracelets, and anything you can imagine with a four-sided connector. 3. The Hex_Chain_fabric_links01.stl is great for making coasters, armor, and anything you can think of with a six-sided connector. These shapes are very simple to print, but it can get tedious printing one at a time. Make a few copies in your favorite slicer and print an array of them. When printing these in large arrays, make sure that your printer bed is perfectly level and adequately sticky (hairspray, gluestick, abs juice, etc.).
