Hi Polyhedra Lovers,
I love them also!
However, over time I have observed the very flat approach to them. I do not think this has been a sign of a disrespect, but rather ‘flat Earth’ syndrome, which is still prevalent not only in schools’ curricula but also in many CAD systems (including F360).
Thinking about icosahedron, which is the favorite of most sophisticated plutonic-platonic solids lovers (including me), it is a pity, that it has not found its rightful place on the side of the cube on F360 menu.
As a matter of fact, I would like to see all five regular solids there… not only for enjoinment of all of us, but also as the recognition of their significant status in many branches of science, design, and technology.
Nonetheless, as it might not happen soon enough to allow you to consummate your lust for them, please find attached file with three sets of platonic solids (one sharing the same 10 mm subscribed sphere radius, sharing the same 10 mm inscribed sphere radius and the other the same 10 mm edge length).
Truncated variants (0.3333333 of an edge) are also included.
I grant unlimited credit to the use the file and/or its parts in entirety… but only in the current 3D+T space we are in.
When you advance into a/the higher dimension and I met you there, the credit will cease, interest calculated, and the final bill presented. So be aware…!

As the festive season approaches, please find recordings from epoch/Enoch, when these solids were constituted. Viewing them requires 4k capable monitor/projector/TV with 3D glasses, in the case of anaglyph stereo file (arcd) with red/cyan filters and for sequential (al), side-by-side (sbsl) stereo files as your hardware dictates.
These are gifts for personal, non-commercial use only… now and thereafter.
