Deltoidal Icositetrahedron
Description
This Deltoidal Icositetrahedron 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 the 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](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:273327). Fun Facts about the [Deltoidal Icositetrahedron](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deltoidal_icositetrahedron): -Has 24 faces, 48 edges, and 26 vertices -Each of its faces is the same 4-sided kite shape -One of the 13 [Catalan solids](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalan_solid) -Dual of the [Rhombicuboctahedron](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombicuboctahedron) To download more polyhedra like this, see our [Catalan Polyhedra Collection](https://www.thingiverse.com/mathgrrl/collections/catalan-polyhedra).
