Just wanted to share a few of my most recent creations with you. Here are examples of a polyknot (knots with polyhedral symmetry) inspired by MC Escher and Rinus Roelofs, a polychain, and a polylink. I have used tiles to create them to make them suitable for 3D printing.

I almost forgot here are 3 Klein bottle inspired structures...

Here are a few more Klein surfaces:

There are just so many possibilities ...

Ulrich, so I was able to render a "thick" annulus and faceted cuboctahedron in Stella, but the STL file did not work in Shapeways. Not sure how to fix that. Will try something else. Thank you again, Bert

Thank you Ulrich, I'll give that a try and post the results later.

Here is an annular trefoil knot and a cylindrical trefoil knot I made with Great Stella.










I'll put the Klein cube and a few other things up later...
Enjoy, Bert

Ok, I thought it might not be a priority, but thought I'd ask anyway. Thank you for responding so promptly, I really appreciate it. The Topological Small Stellated Dodecahedron is a beautiful model. Do you have an interest in other topological structures besides links such as knots or braids? I put ...

Oh, and could I do that with animations and or tours
too? Albert

May I post images in your gallery or should I do it elsewhere?
Albert

Ok, well do you think you will create a thickening App for surfaces anytime in the next year?
Also, is there an export file for augmented reality and or virtual reality files?
Thank you, Albert

Hi My name is Albert P. Carpenter and I love GreatStell 4D. I've had endless hours of joy creating with it in ways I never thought possible without it. Here are a few of my designs:

I'm sorry to trouble you again, but I did the things you instructed me to do (stl file format in base stellation view) to be able to 3D print. Unfortunately, Shapeways had trouble with the files. I work with surfaces like the ones attached and one sided surfaces like the Mobius strip that I would ...

Thank you very much. Albert P Carpenter

New feature or one I am unaware of... Is it possible to export Stella files for 3D printing? If so how? If not could that be done? Albert
