Drex’s Tech Poi Blog #228: Plane-bent Zan’s diamond

Some more fun toroid action based upon last week’s work. It dawned on me as I was writing out the description for my video last week that many of the patterns we make with poi come down to creating trochoid derivatives of polygons our hands are nominally tracing out--but what if we used plane-bends to describe these shapes rather than creating the trochoids. Here I take this idea and apply it to Zan’s diamond. Interestingly enough it takes a body through both directions of a buzz saw in vertical and horizontal plane.
