Composite Link: 2_2_1 # 5_2 (left and right-handed versions)

This is a model of the composite link 2_2_1_#_5_2. Since 5_2 is a chiral knot, it comes in left and right-handed versions, and there are two topologically different versions of this link. Models of both are given here.

They are tied in a tube of constant radius, and pulled tight. In the thin version, the tube has been reduced to half-size in order to help you see the crossings. In the thick version, the tube appears at full scale. These are easier to print without as much support material.
