I rarely make the same polyhedral shape more than once. But now that I have UV printer, it opens up unlimited possibilities for adding images to these existing shapes. The first time I made one of these, I used Romark Colorshop plywood. This time, I printed a colorful floral pattern on clear acrylic so you could see the design on both sides.
Snapmarks works great to cut after the images are printed on the acrylic.
Assembly using translucent PLA connectors.
Well I haven’t been coveting the eufymake until now. Very cool.
I also think a straight gradient between two contrasting colors that radiates from the center to the tips could be gorgeous.
Looks great as always
Significant upgrade from Colorshop plywood! Very pleasing!
That is VERY COOL!
this is beautiful, I love the pattern. I have eufymake fomo. 
Oh my. These uv printers are changing the game
@pubultrastar as is your style, you elegantly combined three different technologies with your genius and creativity: 3D printing, UV printing and laser cutting. Congratulations!
I do not need a UV printer… I do not need a UV printer… I do not need a UV printer…
Nice. Very nice. I’m glad you bent your rule about not making the same polyhedral shape more than once. This is worth it!
This post is like seeing the first flower in spring! Stunning creation!
Gorgeous! Stupid question though - why have the color show on both sides if they’re formed into a shape where you only see one side of it? Or am I not understanding? However, I love how the clear acrylic makes it really shine. Like I said, gorgeous!
When a polyhedra is topological, it is constructed in a way that lets you see inside through the gaps. It not as apparent on this one because the pieces are interwoven closely together, but you can see what’s on the back side of each face if you look closely. It might even look interesting if you put a completely different design on the back than the front. Here’s an example.
I love this! The colors are so vibrant!
Btw if anyone is curious how to do double sided (on a clear material not flipping an object over) I did a quick short on shot glasses to demonstrate. Also showing the magical Siraya tech PEBA filament (a foaming TPU)
@pubultrastar - gotcha! I understand now. Thanks for the explanation!
@henryhbk - very interesting video. That does look cool!
Gosh, that is amazing! I’m wondering how weather-resistant the prints are. I’d think the colors at least might fade, but maybe not.
