there will be no model of this exact tile. there is something wrong with the geometry. it will not let me triangulate. it will not let export it to an .stl. i cannot cut/ difference/ subtract/ trim/ section. [why are there all these terms anyway?] so, it will live on for now only in the digital realm and as printed 2d images.
K, I feel your pain. I truly do. But this effort hasn't gone to waste - if you still have the digital artifact, why not try layering, transforming, and manipulating the image of the object to create new patterns as you've done already? I think it can be very telling to manipulate 2d images in a way you couldn't do with the physical construct. Maybe you can use this investigation and translate your process back to model-making?
