I have always liked Mobius strips from when I first saw them in high school. These are a two-dimensional mathematical shape twisted into three dimensional space. There is only one "side"; if you follow the surface of the strip it goes all the way around, with no "inside" or "outside". Similarly, a Mobius has only one edge. I have made a whole series of these Mobius strips, from a variety of materials, in various sizes. The first ones I made the hard way, but subsequently I made some special tools, "stakes", to help me make these strips. Like most things, the results are better with practice and better tools. I enjoy making Mobius strips, and I like the way they look. |

| The Mobius Strip is sometimes referred to as a Mobius Band, a
Moebius Band, or a Moebius Strip. |
 |
The Mobius is available with a six
inch by six inch marble
base for an additional $50. The base provides room for an engraved
plaque, if desired. The Mobius is clamped to the base, which allows it to be repositioned or removed for handling. Many people enjoy handling the Mobius, turning it over in their hands and looking at it from different angles. |

| This larger Mobius was made working with a local fabrication shop, using their smallest machine.
The shop has the capability of making a much larger Mobius. Please contact me if you are interested in a large Mobius. |
