The Kostick-Catcher This design led me to John Kostick, perhaps the most prolific vZome user.

5-Twins-6- Dodecahedra - Download Free 3D model by jjkostick [a7119eb] - Sketchfab A pentagonal dodecahedron is doubled by reflection, making a “twin” that shares one of the 5 cubes inscribed within them. This process is repeated with the 4 other inscribed cubes, yeilding a total of 6 dodecahedra with a common center. Made with vZome.

This design of two intersecting pentagonal dodecahedrons will be a good one to try making in wood. https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/two-dodecahedra-e0a9ac6f1fe4432ca709404299468043

Two-Dodecahedra - Download Free 3D model by jjkostick [e0a9ac6] - Sketchfab An intersection of two Pentagonal Dodecahedra, in alternate orientations. They share a set of 8 vertices that are at the corners of a Cube, which is inscribed in both Dodecahedra. Made with vZome
