Plex Tiles

Plex Tiles are a support-free, modular textile system. Use them to make hand bags, clothing and all manner of apparel. They can be printed on even the smallest bed printers, and use very little material. Print them flat in PLA, or print them in multiple materials and colors, and combine them to create patterns. Plex Tiles consist of a triangular tile and a snap on connector. Once the connector snaps on, they are very difficult to get off, so you don't have to worry about your designs falling apart. Just plan it out, because you may not get them apart again. The base tile has 3 holes and it prints at 2" (50.8mm). Connect them together to form the main body of the garment. Use the 2 hole tiles for finished edges, like the top of your bag. The strap tile can be used for straps, belts, bracelets, etc. The 3 way connector allows you to drape designs off your main piece or form more complex shapes. It's really up to you. I can't wait to see what you make with them!
