Wood Icosidodecahedron 17
12 woven Pentagons, 20 triangles, 30 diamonds, 60 sticks, 12" diameter. The wood is 1/4" x 3/4" x 5" and each piece has 2 compound (X,Y & Z axis) angled notches cut halfway thru (one from below & one above) so they snug together. Mostly press fit with minimal glue joints. I like to clear coat with semi gloss so the grain shows real nice.
1950s Googie restaraunts & coffee shops had alot of these as light fixtures. They were all the rage with geometrics, molecules, & boomerangs. These wood sculptures could easily be incorporated into a light fixture with a white glass globe inside.
