helical coupling 3d models

My first attempt at making a flexible helical coupling. I've tried it out in PLA, and it seems to work fine. ...The durability of this design is questionable, but it is fun to try out :) You must print this design using support material.

... was drawn based on real coupling. ...The dimensions' ration are almost 1:1 (very close to the real part)This type of coupling is called flexible coupling and it is used as intermediate part between two misaligned shafts to reduce the energy/speed loss.

I needed a way to connect my stepper motor to ACME rod, so I figured that if I'm going to print one, I might as well see how well a helical coupling prints. It came out better than expected, but I can't claim anything about performance or longevity...
