Small Stellated Dodecahedron as Ornament

thingiverse

This small stellated dodecahedron features a hole for hanging in one of its pyramids; two more related polyhedra are also provided. The construction process involves replacing each face of a dodecahedron with scalable pentagonal pyramids, resulting in the stellated dodecahedron. Additionally, a known polyhedron called the Catalan solid (pentakis dodecahedron) can be created. The two extra polyhedra consist of about 60 approximately equilateral triangles, one being stellated and the other indented. Please refer to the openSCAD code for further details. When printing the stl files, a raft and external support are necessary. An included scad file animates the transformation between forms.
