Description

Four two part ornaments. Each part holds a pattern and the parts can be rotated with respect to each other. Classic moire patterns are formed when two identical patterns are overlaid and slightly offset. These ornaments exhibit that behavior. In addition two unrelated types can be rotated against each other making many curious patterns. A simple openSCAD program which illustrates the rotation of the ornaments is included.
