This is a double napped cone (reinforced with a 10mm diameter cylinder at the tips) that has magnetic breakaway cross sections to reveal each of the 4 conic sections.
This model was designed for magnets that have a 10mm diameter and a 2.6mm depth (I ordered 10mm x 3mm magnets and their dimensions were actually 10mm x 2.6mm. If you would like me to modify the magnet holes for your type of magnet, just message me).
For each face that has 2 magnets (that means every face except the circle), I installed the magnets with reverse polarity so it is impossible to put the object on backwards. I also made sure each part of the hyperbola had the same polarity so the pieces were interchangeable.
Remember to use superglue on your magnets instead of hot glue since the heat destroys the magnetism.
