In the spirit of Adam Savage’s tested, here is a one day build I completed yesterday of a Topological Hollow Triambic Icosahedron. At least that is what Stella4D calls it. This was fun because there are colors on both sides of each face. Only twelve 3D printed connectors were needed, and 20 faces. Proofgrade draftboard was used for the faces painted with acrylic paint.
That is really amazing! Reminds me of sheets I had in the 80s. LOVE IT!!!
Wow, this is amazing. Thank you for showing.
That one seriously looks like it should be able to move. I love that when you look inside there is colour as well
Very cool!
So if I’m reading this right, the entire thing should be “boingy”? Like it should have a fair bit of flex?
Looks that way, but it’s actually quite solid.
WOW. Say that 3 times as fast as you can.
Polhedronization intensifies…
Nice! Love the color.
This is super fantastic! How fun. The colors are just right too.
Wow. This one is really impressive.
Very nice.
This one? I’d say that everyone. Impressive as always @pubultrastar
Gorgeous and intriguing! How you come up with these is beyond me…
I use software called Stella4D to generate the polyhedrals, so I don’t really come up with them, I’m just browsing through the app and ask myself if it looks possible.
I know you do, but it still takes a certain mind to coach it out of the program…
