I wonder what would happen if you put 2 or more strips together and cut them.....

 

[Lobster]

Amazing, I only heard about these once, A long time ago. I have not even heard the word "mobius" since today.

I liked the last experiment it was cool.

 

[PB_and_J]

Very intresting, yet most 5 year olds know about that

 

[Jessi]

Its the kind of thing that makes you want to stop thinking.

 

[The Helper]

Yes, I have known about this for many an eon but have not seen it presented like that in the you know - youtube age. It made me think about it again and so I said hmm... interesting - el posto Plus I did not know you could cut them like that.

That was a pretty cool video. I have seen in catalogues where they have a mobius bracelet where they can fit the whole lord's prayer on there.

Ahh, we did this as like our 3rd expiriment in Bio Lab this year, which is really early

 

[Cornface]

hey, i havent seen the video but...

Did you know that if you cut the mobius strip in half (along the strip, not across) in the middle, the mobius strip will be still there? (half the width, twice the diameter)

then if you cut the end product of the above process again along its length, the mobius strip will finally split into 2 mobius strips.

 

[The Helper]

Ya, that is basically what the video is showing.

I had no clue that it split into two different strips if you kept cutting - that's amazing.
