Re: Noble polyhedra. Where can I find them?

@Ulrich Oh, I forgot - there was also this dodecahedron facet dual pair with degen vertices https://i.postimg.cc/c6sF9ppS/doe-facet.png I'm interested in finding nobles with 120 vertices. When I try to facet a polyhedron with 120 vertices, Stella puts up a heroic effort but crashes before finishing ...

Re: Noble polyhedra. Where can I find them?

@Ulrich When I said I found 46, I wasn't counting regular polyhedra and ones with degenerate faces - of which there are 17. So I actually have 3 new ones for you. The first two are a dual pair with hexagram faces - the first one has the same convex hull as your W115_01_d in the .pdf sent me, and the...

Re: Noble polyhedra. Where can I find them?

@Ulrich
I followed the above method - found 46 total.

There is a weird shape - not a noble - from faceting the 2 snub cubes compound. Face is a 7gon, with 2 types of vertices.

Re: Noble polyhedra. Where can I find them?

@robertw I bought it, and I'm enjoying it a lot. In the Bruckner catalogue, after sifting through compounds and dual entries, I count 27 distinct nobles with octahedral or icosahedral symmetry, not including another 8 with degenerate hexagonal faces. In another thread you mentioned that you found a ...

Noble polyhedra. Where can I find them?

I found out about noble polyhedra a few days ago. I was looking at the final icosahedron stellation and realized it's an isohedral isogonal figure made out of ENNEAGRAMS. THAT'S INSANE. Now my mission in life is to learn about all the noble polyhedra I can. What I'm interested in are the "miscellane...
