Description

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.

Rhombicuboctahedron - Fun Facts

  • A rhombicuboctahedron is a 3D shape with 26 faces: 8 triangles, 6 squares, and 12 rectangles. It has 24 corners and 48 edges. It is one of the Archimedean solids, which are shapes made of regular polygons with the same arrangement of faces at each vertex.

Some interesting facts about rhombicuboctahedra:

  • The Rhombicuboctahedron is sometimes called the “small” Rhombicuboctahedron, as there also exists a corresponding “great” Rhombicuboctahedron.
  • They can be seen as expanded cubes or octahedra, by adding a rectangular prism to each face.
  • They can be made by cutting off the corners of a cube or an octahedron, and then trimming the edges.
  • They have octahedral symmetry, which means that they have fourfold rotational symmetry and three planes of symmetry.
