OpenSCAD project that creates various customizable bracelet or ring models. You can play with a lot of parameters to archive the desired look of your bracelet (see picture).
There are also ready-made STL files for two bracelets and one ring, both with 8 segments, 3 directional changes and 20 degrees of twist for each directional change.
Check it out on Thingiverse with online customizer and on PrusaPrinters!
Print with some (semi)transparent PETG filament with following settings:
- without infill
- 2 perimeters
- 5 top and bottom solid layers
I have tested following filaments, both bracelets and rings made from them look great and they are also UV reactive (glowing in UV light)!
There are other UV reactive filaments listed on Amazon, some tips (not tested):
- MG Chemicals Fluorescent Red / Hot Pink PLA
- Gizmo Dorks Fluorescent Yellow PLA
- Gizmo Dorks Fluorescent Blue PLA

If you want to play with the design in OpenSCAD or you want to modify the code and contribute, you will need:
- OpenSCAD version 2019.05 or later
- Polyround library
For Thingiverse online customizer the SCAD file is slightly modified - the library file is included directly in the main file (no use statement) and let statements are expanded, because Thingiverse probably uses older version of OpenSCAD engine.
