Evertible Platonic Solids

thingiverse

There are several eversible platonic solids available, and I plan to make them accessible as a toy in this project. Generally, they consist of a header and a belt. Once you remove the header, the belt becomes eversible. To create these solids: Please print the parts without any additional supports or rotations. It's a good idea to use different colors for each part. Remove the support and finalize the holes with a 2 mm drill in the belt objects. Then, use filament strips to connect the parts of the belt. Schneider Cube: Print two headers and four sets of belt pieces. This solid was originally designed by Konrad Schneider. Sykora Octahedron: Print two headers and six sets of belt pieces. This solid was created by Friedemann and Immo Sykora. Maas Dodecahedron: Print two headers and ten sets of belt pieces. This solid was designed by Wolfgang Maas. To come: * Tetrahedron from Franz Sykora * Cube from Robert Byrnes * Cube from Paul Schatz * Cube from Wolfgang Maas * Octahedron from Robert Byrnes * Dodecahedron from Robert Byrnes * Dodecahedron from Immo Sykora
