I think this belongs in here, but please move if it’s better in the YouTube thread.

I found this quite interesting....

That looks like a computer rendering.

Fully working model! Unless I’ve linked the wrong thing

edit: just checked and it’s a real one. He sells them I think. They’re 3D printed.

Aye. Looks real to me too.
Very cool.

Looks like a rendition to me, and I cant see any Mobius connection at all but it does look interesting

It looks real to me, but definitely not Mobius.

That would give me a headache trying to work out angles. A nice piece all the same.

There's pages of his maths. I tried to follow it but lost me after the first few lines!

I would imagine that a decent CAD package would do it in a very short time.
