I have previously printed a Erwin Hauer one like the one above. I would like to try some of Hauer's more complicated work, it seems the parametric world is fixated on his 'Leising church facade' (me included) Maybe because its easier, 

I also have already done a Lamp in this style, I found that while both surfaces were totally independent (i did a mesh|mesh intersection to confirm) due to all the undulations and pinch points around it that the two surfaces are braced. Very little movement. (photo below)

Even for this weave sphere which is perfectly symmetrical the freedom of movement will be dictated by the very small and tight weave at each end.

Will be interesting to see how the Erwin Hauer style one comes out.  It's 2 separate free floating objects that are intertwined, right?

Looking nice Nick, post also images of the 3d printed result, I'm curious how they look

Cheers!

Thanks David, I've had a lot of fun with them. I actually have many more but the presentation style changes with each one, and i don't want to post them till they all match.
