Index Entry
Nature coordinates in twelve alternatively equi-economical degrees of freedom-- six positive and six negative. For this reason twelve is the minimum number of spokes you have to have in a wire wheel in order to make (comprehensive*) a structural integrity of that tool. You have to have six positive and six negative spokes to offset all polar or equatorial diaphragming and torque.
