Overview:This model has only three differing parts: A right and left arm/segment (1&2) and a four-point joint connector. Each arm has an extruded profile on each side which was made to allow the maker to differentiate between arms/segments. These will only connect to each other on the flat back side of each arm/segment. This model also takes advantage of the use of your scrap filament for its hinges/connection method.

Alternatively, you can also use a *soldering iron to further secure each connection but this is not entirely necessary for my model. I'm aware there are existing Hoberman Spheres available on various websites but I aimed to make one similar to Siberk's Cuboctahedron style version on Thingiverse.
