WLED Strombic Hexecontahedron Globe
This one has been in progress since August of last year trying to plan ahead for when my eufyMake E1 UV printer would finally arrive. It didn't get here until January, but some of you know the challenges of backing a kickstarter campaign. The assembled polyhedral sat on a shelf patiently waiting on the eufyMake to arrive. Anyway, the only reason I even bought a 3D printer back in 2018 was to make a dymaxion globe which started me down a never-ending rabbit hole of building polyhedrals. Fast forward to buying a UV printer, this opened up a ton of new possibilities for adding color to my designs. The projection of this map was done using the Flexify photoshop plugin, printed on clear acrylic with the eufyMake e1, and laser cut on my Glowforge using Snapmarks.. The design of the Strombic Hexecontahedron was done in Fusion 360 and 3D printed on a Bambu X1-C. Of course lights were added and a small WLED controller was placed inside to create the lighting patterns because why not. It's great being able to use multiple maker tools for this amazing globe.
