If you came looking for things that make sense, you came to the wrong place. In fact you must be quite confused. I will make it very clear. This blog is about the hexaperplexing world of a 7th grader. Also it may contain some details on how to be a successful entrepreneur.
Now that that's cleared up, here's the deal. I have noticed lately that I am lacking in funds. Or as one might say, "broke." I have also noticed that those brave persons who sell their wares bring in a good but of profit. I suppose I have decided that if I want to get cash, selling something might be a good enterprise. How about... HEXAFLEXAGONS. The idea of a trihexaflexagons is a hexagon that is made from a strip of paper and can flip and flip and flip, showing all of its 3 sides. A hexahexaflexagon is like its three sided compatriot in that it has a number of sides divisible by 3. But instead of the mundane 3*1=3 nonsense, it possesses the more elegant 3*2=6 sides. The only issue is that as of yet I am unable to access all 6 sides. From henceforth I shall call the trihexaflexagon flexagon and the hexaflexagon the hexaflexagon. If you are confused, go watch some ViHart on the infamous YouTube.
I think that this will be an awful lot like a science experiment. If I sell flexagons at school, will people buy them? I will bring one on the walk to school tomorrow and ask what price they think is fair. I would give them away, since they cost nothing to make, but the idea is to turn a profit. Maybe $0.50 or $0.25? I don't know.
Here is a diagram of how to construct a flexagon, once you have folded your 9 60 degree angles.
