Publication scope: Local versus global path admission is an explicit choice. Individual tetrahedron volumes are not a union volume, mass or a derived filling of K6. No particle identity or measured parameter is established.
Two paws sharing leg AD
ABC + AD and AEF + AD · six vertices · seven initial relationships
Blue: original edges · Gold: BD, CD, DE, DF · Violet: cross-paw BE, BF, CE, CF. Drag to orbit; scroll to zoom.
AD stays fixed. Each body turns around AD, then B and E fold about AC and AF. All original edges remain unit length; each completed paw is a regular unit tetrahedron. Cross-paw relationships generally have other lengths. Faces display the two supplied convex hulls, not a derived filling of K₆. Volumes below are individual, not their union.
Local closure stabilizes at 11 edges; global closure reaches K₆ (15 edges) in one cycle because A already connects to every vertex. Playback reset replays the construction—it is not another closure cycle. Geometry and path-admission scope are explicit experimental choices.
