    Hi Shapeways fans,

    Loopy Six is a puzzle ring with six bands. Whereas conventional puzzle rings have all their rings topologically linked, this one has not. Instead, this puzzle has two strings of three rings. However, the two ends of one string are fit around the other rings, so that they cannot come apart. This concept was first tried out with OoO Ring.

    Watch the YouTube video.
    Buy the puzzle at my Shapeways Shop.

    Check out the photos below.

    Enjoy!

    Really cool! Does it take a lot of test prints to get an interlocking design to work?

    Sometimes yes. This one was first time right.
