Auryn Puzzle

Do what you dream with this elaborate and tricky Auryn puzzle based on the version in the movie The NeverEnding Story.

Notes:

(other details not given as printers very so widely)

Print four pieces, two each of head and tail, preferably each pair in different colors. Silk bronze and silk copper look closest to the movie item. The only supports that may matter are the ones for the mouth and belly insert holes -- don't forget to snap them out if you used a support there! They should come out very easily.

Connect one colored head to the other colored tail, intertwining as pictured. Do the same with the other pair, then simply snap them together (again, intertwining)! See detailed instructions for assembly and link to instruction video below. You should not see any seams, divots, or connectors if it is assembled properly.

You can put a drop of glue on the connecting points if you want a permanent connection.

This object was made in Tinkercad.
