Rigid chain

Description

EDIT 2017-04-29: I'm adding a zip file with the .scad drawings and two .scad libraries you need to add in the same directory to use some module. those libraries are: -a pin library slighty modified by me, but I don't remember which was, maybe this: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:33790 -a herringbone rack library slightly (and badly) modified by me to eliminate the body. the original library can be found here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6011 The code has comments at the beginning to print every single part, I'm sorry you have to find out how many prints for every piece, but I think it will be simple. Have a nice day! I'm interested in building a flat printer, similar to N.Seward design: https://plus.google.com/u/0/+NicholasSeward/posts/d2vhGGjsFVt?pid=6039614550851948914&oid=104209901845806192943 ..so this is an attempt to see if a rigid chain is doable with 3d printing.. I'm not uploading Openscad files until someone is interested in improving it, because it doesn't work very well... I posted pictures all the way, because it can be of inspiration for someone.
