Pentagon Geek Desk Organizer - from 1918 tessellating Reinhardt

Customized version of Pentomizer - Every known tessellating convex pentagon Customize your own, it's easy!

This is a desk organizer based on one of five tessellating pentagons discovered in 1918 by mathematician Karl Reinhardt. The four compartments of the organizer each have the same irregular pentagon base, and the resulting four-pentagon pattern can be used to tile the plane. That means that if you print more than one of these desk organizers, that they will fit together!
