I think if you look more carefully at the photo - you will see that the inner strip and outer strip are actually the same width...it only looks smaller on the inner one because of the angle. The equal width allows you to make reversed (but equal) hexes by flipping your ruler upside-down and right-side-up using your 60 degree ruler. Make sense??
