Low Poly Spheres: Low-poly, high-fun!
Low Poly Spheres is a series 3D printable models of polyhedra that look like low-poly spheres. You may remember from math class that polyhedra are solid 3D shapes with flat polygonal faces, straight edges, and sharp corners or vertices. Low Poly Spheres are fun to make and display. You can print them in different colors and sizes, and use them as decorations, toys, or educational tools. Low Poly Spheres are a fun way to enjoy 3D printing and mathematics. They are simple, yet beautiful and fascinating.
Truncated Cuboctahedron - Fun Facts
A truncated cuboctahedron is an Archimedean solid with 12 square faces, 8 regular hexagonal faces, and 6 regular octagonal faces. It has 48 vertices and 72 edges.
This one has many names, as the original naming by Kepler is considered by many to be misleading:
- Truncated cuboctahedron (Johannes Kepler)
- Rhombitruncated cuboctahedron (Magnus Wenninger [1])
- Great rhombicuboctahedron (Robert Williams [2])
- Great rhombcuboctahedron (Peter Cromwell [3])
- Omnitruncated cube or cantitruncated cube (Norman Johnson)
- Beveled cube (Conway polyhedron notation).
