        An idea for the holidays.

        Cut 30 pieces like this:

        Then have fun sliding them toghether to obtain this:

        Precise instructions and ready-to-print templates: here and here

        Of course, you can also obtain similar results using sketchup

        I also built one with colored thick paper and it is actually fun.

                        You might enjoy making models of some of Bathsheba's work too -http://www.bathsheba.com.

                        Here's a model inspired to [url=http://www.bathsheba.com/sculpt/metatrino/:3dwc88vc]Bathsheba's Metatrino[/url:3dwc88vc] (I didnt model many details but it has the same structure: the cube and its dual, the octahedron)

                        If anyone wants to try, the [url=http://www.bathsheba.com/sculpt/metatron/:3dwc88vc]Metatron[/url:3dwc88vc] could be fun.

                          The more curious is that Bathsheba describe all his works and all his numerous tools and there is not TopMod inside!!! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

                            Nice renderings Pilou, thanks.
                            Contributions are always wellcome.

                            The command for connecting two faces in TopMod
                            is actually really useful.
                            Btw, are you a developper of TopMod?

                              Pilou,

                              As might be deduced from the name, Bathsheba is a She. But thank you for the link. This is mind-boggling stuff. She lives near me. I'll have to see her sculptures.
