I designed a flexible pattern for laser cutting that enables a piece of wood to be fully rounded for living joints.

As the model name suggests, this is my first attempt at a pattern to make fully rounded corners on wooden objects.  The design cuts well, and looks aesthetically pleasing, and has a decent bend ratio.  I was able to bend the 7mm MDF (only a 70mm x 70mm piece) in the picture about 30-35 degrees in all directions, crowning the center.  It does not create as many square jointed bends that other patterns had been making, so I am fairly happy with the results.

 

It was inspired by "Kofaktorlab's" Super Flexible Double Curvature Surface at Instructables.
