I had a comment on my stitching video that the technique was useful for making a zipper, so I figured I’d have a go at my own zipper. This uses ruled surfaces as well, like in the stitching video, except as the ruled surface has more than one face, I have had to rebuild them as a single surface to control the twisting of the patterned zipper instances.
