We haven't actually run the thing to completion. We ran it for a couple days and then stopped after finding tens of thousands of solutions. Might explore again if we have time to improve the solver efficiency.

Fair point. The gradients are just to be pretty. We could make you a solid color version if you would like. Email orders@nervo.us and we can set up a custom order.

I'm somewhat ignorant about the search ranking implications of changing our domain. I bought the nervo.us domain much later and we've had the n-e-r-v-o-u-s.com domain since 2007.

hi colordrops! the flummox coupon works in the shopping cart. often folks try to apply it in the gift card box in the checkout procedure. Let me know if you already placed and order and I can apply the coupon retroactively for you. If you would like to provide any more info on the checkout errors you can email me at orders@nervo.us

I tried to sign up for Kick and received an email that you don’t support my industry. Were an artist studio that makes and retails physical goods. Do you expect to support more industries soon?

nervous_jessica··on A puzzle that tiles infinitely across both sides, based on the Klein Bottle
Nice! I haven't seen these before. There's also a brand of puzzles called Schmuzzles that are based on an escher lizard and tile. I would say the difference between these and our torus-based puzzles is that they employ a tessellation cut with repetitive piece shapes such that the image is guiding the construction (as all pieces fit in all places). In our puzzles, each piece only goes one place as they each have a unique shape. Our Klein Bottle and Cross-cap puzzles is are a new idea (to the best of my knowledge).

This one is a Klein Bottle but we just released a cross cap one yesterday: https://n-e-r-v-o-u-s.com/blog/?p=8068
nervous_jessica··on Formlabs: High Resolution 3D Printer
it's an issue of the size. makerbots can print nice looking things but not that small. the objects being compared are the size of a quarter.
