Hexa Chainmail - Futuristic Armor

thingiverse

There was another hexa-chainmail design on Thingiverse, but its flexibility in both directions fell short. To address this, I created a symmetric version that offers equal flexibility. The revised backside looks significantly better this way. You can utilize this design for SciFi armor or enhance it with runes to fit a fantasy costume. The model comes in multiple sizes, allowing you to piece together any pattern you envision. The original model was slightly oversized, depending on your intended use. I recommend scaling it down by about 50% if you plan to create clothing. To connect patches seamlessly, I've added a clip-on connector piece that enables you to link several sections together. For an even stronger bond, apply glue to the small "arms" or try welding them with a brief flame torch pass.
