(0,6,60,0)-deltahedron discovered by John Futhey, based on an octahedron with its faces divided into 16 sub-triangles. (George Hart references it here: http://www.georgehart.com/virtual-polyhedra/deltahedra-info.html) The middle sphere of each of the octahedral edges is bent inwards. Although this construction looks like a 'collapsed structure' it is completely rigid.
Building Instructions[]
- Build it from one tip of the super octahedron to the other.
- Make sure to keep the spheres magnetically neutral.
