Statics - Stripes-2

All Objects consist of two identical stripes.

In the beginning the stripes were simply welded one to each other at both ends.

From such a part one can form an object like "base-2".

As the given material was spring steel and while the try I hurt my face as the object slid apart, I started to plait the edges before the welding operation, while generating objects of the type "base-2".

From this form evolved all furter forms of this series, where only "Plaited-2" is plaited another time for symmetry reasons. An interested reader may reconstruct the objects from paper stripes.
