Excellent written description!
(I did add a bit of clarification to the Reference 1 instruction. Just drive home the point ("must be a vertex")
If would be nice to get some visualization of the process...

I think your animation would be a useful addition. I would make one change - attach to a prism rather than a cube, so you can see what happens when reference2 and reference3 are not perpendicular.

Indeed, but...
is there a way of doing it in a way that would allow one to slow down the speed or stop and start the "visualisation"?
.gif are my personal pet hate when used for this purpose

Hmm...good question. I'm sure there is a way to slow-mo an animated gif. There are plenty of online gif tools to change the speed.
There is definitely a slow-mo setting in YouTube, but those are mp4 or other real video formats.

Yes, I am aware of ways to slow down .gif but it all involves downloading .gif and processing it - slow and cumbersome (and still can't stop at any convenient point)
YT vids are indeed very easy to slow down, stop and rewind - very good when you following tutorial or some visualisation to explain an issue (for example) but probably not the best solution for Wiki?
I don't know what the real answer is but I keep asking just in case there is someone who knows

I think the wiki will allow other formats. But, I don't know if the speed control is available.

My taste, rather than an animated gif would be a slideshow of a gallery of stills, each depicting a step in the process.
I do find the animated gifs very hard to follow, so I don't try unless I'm out of options. Maybe it is supported in the wiki?
