Approximation of a tube twisted into a knot from an Escher woodcut, but rendered solid to make it easier to print.

I realize this is backwards from the woodcut and the shape is somewhat different, but I got it to print cleanly on my little-printer-that-could so I thought that was worth something.

This is based on the MIT-licensed Processing sketch by Henry Rogers at www.henryrogers.com/portfolio/escher/. After getting the sketch up and running, I ported it to OpenSCAD and tweaked the model to make the tube into a solid.
