Celtic Dodecahedron Puzzle

Description

Geometry:

Celtic Dodecahedron is a puzzle based on the geometry of the deltoidal hexecontahedron. I called it the Celtic Dodecahedron to highlight it's relationship to Eitan Cher's beautiful Celtic Cube, which is based on the deltiodal icositetrahedron. Celtic Dodecahedron is a jumbling puzzle with 60 axes of rotation.

Other Items Needed:

Dye: If you want the puzzle to be black, you can dye the pieces yourself with a nylon dye such as RIT or Dylon, or you can have i.materialise dye it for you for a small extra charge (this option is definitely worth it!).

Stickers: Please contact me for the sticker template. If you want professionally cut stickers, I recommend Oliver’s Stickers or Chewie's Custom Stickers.

Screws: Sixty 12mm M3 pan head screws required, available in hardware stores or on the web.

Springs: Sixty springs needed, available in web puzzle shops. I get mine from HK Now Store.

Degree of Difficulty:

Assembly: Moderate skill needed to assemble.

Solving: Very difficult to solve.

Playability:

Celtic Dodecahedron turns very nicely, but should be aligned well before making turns to avoid pops.

Have fun!
