Snowflake Cutter by mathgrrl

Description

Have you ever folded up a piece of paper and cut a snowflake out of it? This is the 3D-printing version! Press the "Open in Customizer" button to draw a wedge of your own unique pattern, which will then be mirrored and rotated to make a snowflake ready for downloading and printing. See the green triangle illustrations in the gallery for examples of where to draw in the square to make your snowflake pattern. Please post a "make" if you create your own snowflake! Every one will be different and it will be great to see what they look like.
