Strandbeest - STL files

This is a derivative. Not my original work.

Now that is out of the way.

Though I think this is still not printable, there are those that want to try so here is an export from the orginal STEP file by GolanHertz.

There are two parts that are too large to be printed on most RepRap based printers. (long_connector and Base_for_Cryptex)

It really wouldn't be hard to take this assembly and design a printable version. This makes for a good visualisation of how the Jansen Mechanism works. The original Jansen Mech uses an 3d printer unfriendly crank shaft, while this design replaces that with the offset wheels, a good step forward. Also, replace the long unprintable pins, Make a CryptexBase in pieces, make the connector pins printer friendly and make all the parts flat on one side for printing and you'd have a printable version. Simple right?

This is not something I have time to do, on this day.
