Platonic nets

Platonic nets

thingiverse

This script generates nets for platonic solids, folding them so objects can be created from a flat net to the complete solid in any position in between. Scripts require a post-2014 version of OpenSCAD. Here are some generated objects: A half-closed dodecahedron, nearly closed, a nearly closed tetrahedron, and a half-closed icosahedron. See http://kitwallace.tumblr.com/post/115676322654/nets-of-regular-solids with GIFs of nets transitioning from open to closed.
