Magnetic Constructions
● Three Levitating Dodecahedra, built with 216 magnets (60 for each dodecahedron, 36 for the tetrahedral base). Each unit looks like this. More pictures: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
● A Hexagonal Samosa, built with 216 magnets. Another picture here.
● Three Oblong Dodecahedra, built with 180 magnets (60 each); the figures themselves are not quite dodecahedra, but are made of 12 pentagons. Other pictures: 1, 2, 3, 4.
● A Torus of Tetrahedra, built with 180 magnets (5 tetrahedra); note that while five regular tetrahedra don't form a torus, there's enough wiggle room in this case. Another picture here.
● Six Tetrahedra, built with all 216 magnets (36 each). Other pictures here and here.
● A Truncated Octahedron, built with all 216 magnets, resting on a base constructed out of another half-octahedron.
● A Samosa, also built with all 216 magnets. Essentially a hexagon curled in on itself.
● A Differently Curled Hexagon, also built with all 216 magnets.
● An Icosahedron on a Tetrahedral Base. The icosahedron is built with 180 magnets, while the base is made from 36 magnets. More pictures (1, 2, 3)
● An Uncoiled Half-Icosahedron, built with 90 magnets. Looks like a flower.
● Another type of Icosahedron, built with 192 magnets.
● An Icosahedron/Dodecahedron, built with 180 magnets. If one views the holes as faces, a dodecahedron; if one views them as vertices, an icosahedron. Demonstrates the duality of the two polyhedra.
