Description

Didn't find the right Icosahedron online so I made one that I was thinking of. I eventually want to get this design to a point where it's like the infinity cube (or something like that) where it breaks up the shape into a single line. A little more decorative, but with some silk PLA, it turned out well. 

I printed it without supports and it was fine, but there was a little bit of layer extrusion issues on the flatter angles. Probably would have printed just fine in High Speed PLA . 

 

 

Design Concept

The hollow icosahedron design features a striking geometric aesthetic with a 20-sided polyhedron structure. The triangular faces with their open design result in a visually interesting model that is perfect for decorative purposes.

Use

Ideal as a desktop decor or a mathematical teaching aid to explain geometric concepts. Its appealing gradient color scheme adds an artistic touch to any space.

Printing Suggestions

When printing, ensure high resolution to retain sharp edges. A dual-color setup will emphasize the gradient effect seen in the photo.

Assembly Instructions

This model does not require assembly, as it's intended to be printed as a single piece.
