Truncated dodecahedron
The polyhedron is obtained by successively cutting off each of the vertices of the dodecahedron.
A truncated dodecahedron is a semiregular convex polyhedron with two properties:
1. All faces are regular polygons of two types - a decagon and a triangle;
2. For any pair of vertices, there is a symmetry of the polyhedron (that is, a motion that translates the polyhedron into itself) that transforms one vertex to another.
The truncated dodecahedron is one of the 13 solids of Archimedes.
Archimedean solids are semiregular polyhedra in the sense that their faces are regular polygons. Still, they are not the same, while the condition of one of the types of spatial symmetry: tetrahedral, octahedral, or icosahedral is preserved.
In this case, we did not combine all the details into a single net, because if we print it on a single A4 sheet, the final scale of the assembled figure will be very small. To build a model, you can download a net in pdf format and print on two A4 sheets. Please note that the sheets are the same! - if you intend to print on a color printer - color net - if you intend to use color paperboard: download net
To assemble polyhedra, we can offer you ready-made patterns that are cut and folded.

Truncated dodecahedron from the set "Magic Edges"
To do this, you need to use the details of the set Magic Edges 27.
Also, in the release itself, you will find information about the structure of the polyhedron.
