Rubik's Snake (Make It Move)

Rubik's Snake.jpg

You have probably heard of the Rubik's Cube, specifically the 3 x 3 Rubik's Cube. But there is a toy called the Rubik's Snake. My mom was the first one to tell me about it. She used to give the Coca-Cola company those caps from the glass bottles. Those glass bottle caps can be redeemed for prizes like a yo-yo and all those other toys. Right, no Legos, no Jenga, no Monopoly. She used to get a Rubik's snake which was the colors of the Coca-Cola logo, red and white. While you can buy one of these, I suggest making it. Now, I don't have a 3D Printer so I don't know if the model will be successful or a failure. Anyways guys....

HAVE FUN MAKING IT!!!

By the way, the picture above isn't my 3D printed version, it is to tell you what a rubik's snake is.

Supplies

3D Printer (Of Course)

2 spools of different colors (Your choice, I chose blue and white, but you can do whatever colors you want, but only 2)

Files

THE LINKS DON'T WORK ANYMORE! Ugh, fine. I'll make new models and give out the STL files, something my past-self didn't know how to do.

Please go to these links below, copy the object, and put it on another project (I will post a new link every 14 days because they will expire):

Putting It All Together

In step 1 you got the files. Print each file 5 times to get a 10-piece rubik's snake. Now put the rods that stick out into the holes.

Finish!

Now for the ends! You will 3D Print 1 copy of the following files:

End piece 1: https://www.tinkercad.com/things/cUM3V5eHdpI-rubik...

End piece 2:https://www.tinkercad.com/things/eHYs8jIOZwI-copy-...

Now finish it by putting it on the ends!
