Inward Ring

This CAD model was designed by Oskar van Deventer, copyright (c), 4 April 2024.

Rainbow Iris was a design challenge by puzzle-ring artist Yael Friedman ( https://www.artsy.net/artist/yael-friedman ) and her husband Nir, who is an avid under-water photographer. The challenge was to make a flat iris design with linearly-moving segments that acts like the diaphragm a camera system. The puzzle has 7 identical segments and 7 mirror images. The puzzle can be taken apart by spinning, using centrifugal force.
