3D model description

Get into the winter holiday spirit with this Trippy Snowflake kinetic sculpture! This sculpture makes use of 5 bevel gears and a fully 3d printed chain and sprocket system to rotate the snowflakes in 2 different directions. This fully mechanical sculpture creates some cool visual effects- effects that can enhance the experience of those special holiday cookies crazy Uncle Jim always brings.

This download includes all of the STL files needed to 3D print your own Trippy Snowflake kinetic sculpture and requires no additional tools for assembly. The download includes 4 different snowflake variations!

This video shows how easy it is to assemble:
