023 Trincubinquadric (432) Introduction

At first glance, 432 seems like a strange choice for a number base, but it may prove to be an important number in unifying bases twelve, sixteen and twenty seven.
At first glance, 432 seems like a strange choice for a number base, but it may prove to be an important number in unifying bases twelve, sixteen and twenty seven. 432 is the product of sixteen and twenty seven, and it just so happens that it is also the least common denominator of twelve, sixteen and twenty seven.
Under Construction
432 is the sum of four consecutive primes, (103 + 107 + 109 + 113).
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 27, 36, 48, 54, 72, 108, 144, 216, 432
432 = 2 x 3 x 2 x 3 x 2 x 3 x 2
432 = 2^4 x 3^3
One idea I had was to combine two systems into one. The systems I worked out for Binquadric and Trincubic could be combined to create all the combinations necessary for a base 432 system.
The left part of the glyph uses the Tricubic pattern, 3 ternary sub digits, and the right part of the glyph uses a Binquadric pattern, 4 binary sub digits.
Using the Repeat Transform feature on the sub-digits in Photoshop, (thank you Adobe), I was able to quickly illustrate all 432 combinations:
