It actually will not!
I was vaguely aware of the Stax being nonstandard, but I've known the Pringles was a hyperbolic paraboloid since about 1978. It's a part of a torus, imagine the inside surface of a donut's hole. Pre-internet days in high school physics, someone asked that question and that led to about a 6-week feud with Mr. Young, who Doubted Very Much that there was a geometer's term for a donut's shape.

The shape of Stax is a simple curve called a hyperbolic cylinder, while Pringles are formed into a double-curve known as a hyperbolic paraboloid.

I love turnbuckles. I have needed to use them only on rare occasions but I always loved just saying the word. Melodic and softly percussive.
