Description

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. 

A Hyperbolic Paraboloid is the shape of Pringles.

Print

1 of x0

1 of y0

2 of all other pieces

(18 in total)

Look at the photos to see how to assemble the pieces.

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.
