4x4x4 Rhombic Triacontahedron 转载TP

It was made from a genuine Eastsheen brand 4x4x4. The sides were first built outward with mini Dian Sheng 3x3x3 pieces. I don't like white puzzles very much, but I had no choice due to mini Dian Shengs only being available in white.
In order to get this pattern of cuts, the Dian Sheng pieces had to be trimmed to L*(phi-1) where "L" is the length of one mini Dian Sheng piece and phi is the Golden Ratio.

The geometry of the rhombic triacontahedron was then cut out and the "skeleton" plated with 1mm styrene sheet before stickering in 10 colours with handcut vinyl.

The geometry is a little off in places, but considering the number of sides, I'm happy with it. Also, with all the extra material piled on, movement is tighter than the base puzzle - I prefer the term "comfortably resistant"!
