Description
This corner connectors are used to join together inexpensive wooden skewers (barbecue sticks) into one of the Platonic solids: Dodecahedron (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platonic_solid). This is an inexpensive way to create different forms for education purpose possibly in schools.
There are 2 variants with 3.5 and 3.2 mm hole (approx 1/8″), this fits the most common wooden skewers on the market around us. We can create different dimensions if needed.
You can see the original design http://a360.co/2DKmBcx.
This is a follow up to our previous Icosahedron project https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2769879.
This project is a part of our journey to teach my daughter Emma about geometry, 3d design and 3d printing.
Hope you will find this useful!
