Customizable Convex Polyhedra

openSCAD database of all convex polyhedra with regular faces except for prisms and anti-prisms. This includes the Platonic, Archimedean, and Johnson polyhedra (over 100 total!). Pictured are all the Platonic solids and a few Archimedean solids created with the customizer. I’ve also included platonic.stl for printing the 5 platonic solids, each scaled to be ~2 cm tall. This was built on some previous work: George Hart’s VRML polyhedra models, (http://www.georgehart.com/virtual-polyhedra/vp.html) And pmoews’ polyhedra Thingiverse designs (e.g. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:16508), which have the face data from the VRML files converted to triangles to work with openSCAD.”
