This is a simple model of an X/Y/Z coordinate axis labeled with appropriate axes names/unit vectors for making sense of the right hand rule.

I have found that providing students with this makes it easier for them to make sense of directions from cross-products without having to contort their hands/fingers/wrists in weird ways which they somehow always try to do.

This version is labeled with the vector directions for determining the direction of TORQUE based on the cross-product of Radius and Force. Variations can be designed for other cross-products.
