About 25 years ago I was introduced to Sliceforms by John Sharp and met him, so when I bought a 3D printer they seemed like a good thing to make since I had made many paper and card sliceforms. A Hyperbolic Paraboloid is the shape of Pringles. Print 1 of x0 1 of y0 2 of all other pieces (18 in total) Look at the photos to see how to assemble the pieces. Obviously, because of the thickness of the print, the shape does not squash as flat as a paper model would but it is very tactile and makes nice noises.
