right prism and pattern

thingiverse

I wanted my students to understand the properties of the right prism and its pattern, so I built a hinged one. However, being a beginner, I struggled to find a perfect assembly solution that worked well in both positions - solid and pattern. Despite this challenge, I believe it can still be helpful for my students. To create hinges, I used iron wire inside the 2mm holes of the cylinders. If anyone has a better solution, I'd love to see it! I designed various clips to keep the prism in a stable position, possibly a bit too tight - you'll need to experiment with different parameters to find what works best for your needs.
