About this 3D model

Update: Now check out FlexMesh 2.0 which takes FlexMesh to the next level. FlexMesh suggests a few interesting ways to think outside the box when designing for today's 3D printers. Plastic is fairly rigid, but with the proper geometry some objects printed with plastic can be flexible, durable and strong. Flat shapes can be folded to form tall objects, and tall shapes can be flattened to great lengths. The build area of your printer is 2D, but the build volume is 3D. Your printer's build volume only confines the size of your print jobs, not the full size of your project.Suggest other ways we can overcome the limits of 3D printing today. Updates... Makerbot slicers are now supported for single-layer meshes. TriSphere is another flexible mesh pattern worth exploring.
