3D Printed Modular Polyknots and Polylinks

The same hinge construction system that can be used to build mechanical polyknots also includes components that can be used to build the Escher polyknots and polylinks. The STL files for their componets can be found at:  Mechanical Polyknot Construction System by APC5 - Thingiverse and include the polygon hinged components as well as two triangular C hinges; one small for triangular, square, and pentagonal pyramids and one large for hexagonal, octagonal, and decagonal pyramids. More will be added as they are printed. In principle though it is possible to build the Escher-Platonic, Archimedean, Johnson, Prism, and Antiprism polyknots and polylinks with this system.
