Concepts of Longitude and latitude with respect to center of the Earth can be explained nicely with the help of this model. Norther Hemisphere is broken into two parts. It represents slice from 0 longitude to 73 E.
When printed on the equator side, no support is required. I started with original earth model produced elsewhere but re-sliced it in Blender to create these 3 parts.
3mm rod can be used as an axle while M3 grub screws are used to lock and align two hemispheres in place.
