Tower of Hanoi (hex)

So I'm examining models and notice that someone utilizes Tower of Hanoi puzzles as an initial CAD assignment for a class, which prompts me to think okay, I can practice some CAD and try to recall to dimension everything (which I didn't) for editing later and so on. And for some reason, I had it in my head to accomplish it with hexagonal pieces rather than circular ones. And as long as I was doing that, I went with a hexagonal/triangular base because radial symmetry or something. The base is just over 10cm at its widest point, and the poles are approximately 6 cm high. Each disk is 5mm high and there are nine of them. The largest disk is 70mm across, and there are nine in 5mm intervals. This creates each pentagon's point-to-point measurement to be just a tiny bit bigger than the side-to-side measure of the next larger disk, which makes it visually harder to determine the rank order of the disks unless they're stacked and aligned. Spread out with the largest disks on separate poles, it should fit comfortably under 170mm at its widest. (I tried to do this in my head, so Rob Does Arithmetic. YMMV.)
