CAD & Prototyping
I modeled individual channels into the "body" of the creature and the infrastructure it's wrapped around, so the fishing lines and LED ring wires don't get tangled or interfere with the movement. Since the wires run through the PVC tubing (the center of the backbone), they aren't affected no matter how the backbone bends.
