Description

Use these interlocking shapes to assemble nearly any convex uniform polyhedron. I used these to make a Rhombicosidodecahedron. Shape will feel a little flexible while assembling, but is very rigid once complete.

 

The shapes are designed to interlock semi-permanently. Not intended for disassembly.

 

Here are examples of polyhedra you can make:

If you want to make your own print profile, make sure to use these settings so the parts print correctly:

 

Slow 1st layer for adhesion (25mm/s)

Arachne wall generator

Bottom surface pattern concentric

Only one wall on first layer
