Triakis Icosahedron

thingiverse

This Triakis Icosahedron model is optimized for printing on an SLA/resin machine like the Form2. It's delicate and pushes the limit of what you can 3D print on a resin printer; in particular, you'll have to have steady and gentle hands to remove support material without breaking the model. If you want a sturdier model, scale it up to a larger size before printing. To print on an FDM/filament printer like an Ultimaker, double the size of the resin model or download our previous thicker version at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:273353. Fun Facts about the Triakis Icosahedron: - Has 60 faces, 90 edges, and 32 vertices - Each face is the same isosceles triangle - One of the 13 Catalan solids - Dual of the Truncated Dodecahedron To download more polyhedra like this, see our Catalan Polyhedra Collection at https://www.thingiverse.com/mathgrrl/collections/catalan-polyhedra.
