Pentagonal Hexecontahedron, The rabbit hole that just keep going

So, years now since the group project that was spearheaded by @pubultrastar some 6 years ago, the rabbit hole just keeps going.

A friend in a Fusion class I’m in made a Fusion plug-in for polyhedra, and after I brought up the project, he added it to the plug-in; here is a summary of what it took to do so.

If any of you use Fusion and want to add the plug-in, it can be found here: Release v1.4.0 - Rhombicosidodecahedron, Randomize Appearances, Panel Clearance · edjohnson100/LucysShapeForge · GitHub

@markevans36301 - I think I’ve seen you mention a couple of times about the Fusion class that you’re taking; would you mind providing some details on it?

I don’t mind at all and I’m sure Vladimir will appreciate the exposure.

I wasn’t able to do it until I retired as my work was on location with a fixed schedule but now I just block out the 90 minutes every Tuesday.

With this one, emphasis is on 3d printing but of course Fusion is Fusion no matter what you output to.

As a bonus, he mostly gifts all the prerecorded content to those who take the weekly classes.

Thanks for the info. I may have to check it out. I’m having a horrible time learning Fusion.
