I have already showed Torolf how I made my "LinkingStar" object some weeks ago, then he also constructed it. Now I decided also to do that for our TopMod community because some people want to make gladly that too.
Well the most difficult part was to find the right setup of the foundation of the segments, so that one can be very closely connected together. The connection of the segments with the "Add Handle Mode" is relatively simple in contrast. If one understood this principle offhand are more complex variants are possible too. OK, let's do it!
