Ok, now I understand what you’re going for. Interesting idea! And I can imagine why you refered to it as a “pinwheel”... :-)

I was stuck on using the equalateral triangles due to me having a large collection of Polydron (gasp! A different construction toy!! What is John thinking?) from back when all they sold were squares and equalateral triangles. (They’ve since expanded to several other shapes, too.)

Hmmm... Time to find those leftover 1x4 plate hinges and do some more experimenting!!
