    Near idea! Have you considered making the “backbone” interfaces at a slight angle so that several base pairs begin to form a helix?

    Or maybe a slightly spherical ball & socket connection to allow them to be twisted?

      Yeah most printers should be able to handle small overhang angles like 35 degrees no sweat.

      I bet you could get a decent double helix with that kind of angle.
