The Missing Link -customizable bling

thingiverse

A versatile chain link system, perfect for crafting a wide range of customizable bracelets, chains, and straps. After several unsuccessful design iterations (fragile axles, awkward overhangs, chains that broke apart) I landed on this one. It lies flat on the print bed, with axles printed horizontally. Although it requires some force to snap the links together, they stay connected. The fundamental components of the chain are categorized as type-A (a link with axles) and type-B (a link with bushings). Additional parts include: * Type-C, a center link that can be wider than other links. * Type-M, the magnet lock component * Type-P, which features a pocket, * Type-T, the transformation link, designed to connect links of varying widths. Numerous parameters are available for adjustment (explained below). When first accessed in the Customizer, parameter settings match those used to generate the attached STL files.
