now split that in half and you will get 2 loops linked together.

1 twist a complete loop and tape it

2 cut it and its the same!

Did you make it in Rhino Grasshopper? Are there anyone know to draw a mobius strip in GH? If it is, can you show it to me please?

Thanks

@sacraficialangel7 I have proven it is possible as long as it ISN'T a square. You can do it with an 8.5 X 11 sheet of paper. Mark an 8X8 square in the middle of the paper. Then, fold the paper so that square is folded diagonally in half, and tape together the two ends!

But, if you want to do it the shorter way, I think one dimension needs to be pi times bigger then the other.

@anticorncob6 no. it needs to be about 3x as long as it is wide, otherwise it gets crumpled

Can you make a mobius strip out of a square piece of paper?

@BtbxGino

you can make one yourself out of paper and some tape, and then cut it along the middle as a reference. you will get the exact same result.
