Giant Spiky Perko Knot
Description
This Knot Was Created By Exporting A Model From [Knotplot](Http://Www.Knotplot.Com/) And Then Adding Extrusions To Each Mesh Face In [Topmod](Https://Www.Viz.Tamu.Edu/Faculty/Ergun/Research/Topology/), Then Printed With An Ultimaker 3 Using Dissolvable Pva Supports (The Second Picture Shows The Newly-Printed Knot In A Bucket Being Filled With Water). Inspiration And Knotplot Model Are Credited By My Student Jonathan Gerhard; You Can Read About His Related Project On His Blog Mathematical Add Here: [The Perko Praxinoscope And The Shrikhande Graph](Https://Mathematicaladd.Wordpress.Com/2017/03/20/The-Perko-Praxinoscope-And-The-Shrikhande-Graph/).
