This version costs 4 times less to print.
You probably want to avoid the 'Cream Robust' as it may lack some details, or merge the ants to the strip. the full version is here : http://www.shapeways.com/model/2136/moebius_ants.html It is actually possible to slide the ants around the strip !

Modeled from photographs of a viking firestarter from medieval ages. This is the bronze holding part : the steel part that produces sparks will fit at the bottom.

Inspired by the great artwork of M. C. Escher... with a twist !
This Moebius strip and its ants has been carefully designed to be 'playable'.
It is possible to explore the moebius strip in a tactile way, by sliding around the ants, to get different configuration (both ants on the outside, both inside, one inside and one outside).
I think this demonstrates well the possibilities of 3D printing, and hope these 'Moebius Ants' will make it to Siggraph :-)

Just when I found this unused and broken robotic arm, I heard about Shapeways, so I decided to model a better design with Blender and replace the broken parts with 3D printed plastic !
