About 25 years ago I met John Sharp and was introduced to Sliceforms. I have made many paper and card sliceforms since, so when I bought a 3D printer they seemed a good thing to make.
This is surface which a monkey can straddle with both legs and his tail.
1 of saddle y0
2 each of saddle y1, y2, y3 y4 (8 in total)
1 each of all saddle x’s (9 in total)
Putting the pieces together is a bit tricky. The photographs show several views of the finished saddle.
Obviously, because of the thickness of the print, the shape does not squash as flat as a paper model would but it is very tactile and makes nice noises.
