Dodeca Chain Loop
thingiverse
This intricate structure of 40 interlocking rhombic dodecahedra forms a loop covering almost the entire Replicator build platform, making it unsuitable as a necklace but perfect for use as a crown or other decoration. It's an entertaining toy to play with. The OpenSCAD file offers customization based on your build platform size, allowing you to adjust the loop's dimensions by modifying the number of modules in the straight section and scaling accordingly. This design poses a significant challenge for skeining engines and printers due to its flat base, minimal 45-degree overhangs, and straight bridges, while also featuring intricate details that make it a difficult print. Slic3r was used for skeinage, but there's room for improvement in addressing certain bugs and features. If you can recommend a skeiner surpassing Slic3r's performance, I'd be eager to learn about it.
