The dodecahedron on the front page, folded out of a single sheet of paper!
A dodecahedron folded out of a single sheet of paper! I loved exploring the geometry behind folding those 108-degree angles.

A nice dodecahedron that I made in Blender.
A nice dodecahedron that I made with Blender. Used as my profile picture everywhere.

What if I told you this clever design only uses 120x 2x2 bricks and 60x black pins? That's it! You can do some pretty cool things with even the most basic pieces!
My own Lego dodecahedron design, completely different than the other Lego dodecahedra you can find online. I still have no idea how I discovered the clever design which only uses 120x 2x2 bricks and 60x black pins? That's it! You can do some pretty cool things with even the most basic pieces! Just a warning: building this thing is an absolute nightmare, so if you think building Legos is easy, try making this.
