Rhombic Triacontahedron Connectors

Rhombic Triacontahedron Connectors

Description

Included in this thing are the 2 connector types needed to assemble a Rhombic Triacontahedron, with holes sized to fit 1/4" dowel. You will need to print out 20 of the 3 way connectors and 12 of the 5 way connectors to make a complete polyhedron. All 60 dowel pieces need to be the same length. This was a fun project completed in Autodesk Inventor, with the difficult part being determining the exact angles needed between all the edges. I made mine with 3" long dowel pieces and this turned out to be a nice ornament for my living room.
