KLEIN BOTTLE
A Klein bottle is like two opposite Möbius strips joined together.
A few years ago we made a knitted Klein bottle hat, in two colours to make it obvious how the pieces joined.
I wanted to make a 3D printed Klein bottle in a similar way.
It was trial and error until I arrived at this result.
These were the previous attempts. The details are in this blog post.
