3D Printed Strandbeest

A Strandbeest is a wind-powered kinetic sculpture by Dutch artist Theo Jansen. Since 1990, Jansen has been designing different Strandbeests and letting them loose on the beaches of the Netherlands. The Strandbeest is a mechanical mimesis with PVC pipe instead of bones, plastic tubing instead of veins, with plastic bottles and sails instead of muscles. Of course, this 3D printable Strandbeest only uses hand power or walks when going down a slope.
