Jack (geometry)

From HandWiki

In geometry, a jack is a 3D cross shape consisting of three orthogonal ellipsoids.[1] Sometimes four small spheres are added to the ends of two ellipsoids, to more closely resemble a playing piece from the game of jacks.[2][3] Sometimes any 3D cross shape, consisting of cylinders, boxes or lines instead of ellipsoids, are also included.[4][5][6]
