36-Rtria1b

Rhombic Triacontahedron -

 

My first attempt, inspired by "cbrian4" at youtube:

Bicoupled lattice frame. Larger than cbrian4's and with reinforced vertices made this beautiful sculpture that is surprisingly strong for a framed construction. Assembly can be a bit tricky, probably not something a beginning magneteer should try if they want to avoid frustration.

 

Not a Platonic Solid geometry because some vertices are the intersection of five edges, others are the intersection of three edges (pictured here).

 

Made with Zen Magnets.
