We Made A Giant Zipper To Explain How It Works
How do zippers work? If you’re looking for a molecular modelling kit, try Snatoms, a kit I invented where the atoms snap together magnetically - Massive thanks to IPFL for fabricating our giant zipper - The giant zipper was adapted from an original design by LoboCNC - We’d also like to thank everyone at YKK who helped organise our call, especially Sophia Seco, Engin Ertugrul, Christelle Malot and Matthew Rawstron.
