Model Overview & Print Notes

This is a Mobius strip with an arrow which can travel around to show you that the Mobius strip is a nonorientable surface.

When the arrow comes back to the original location, it's flipped!

Print instructions

This is 3d printed in a single go, with the arrow 3d printed in place around the Mobius strip.

This requires a multimaterial printer and the ability to use soluble supports.

If you want one printed for you, I currently have these listed for sale on Etsy:
