Platonicons: the Platonic solids start rolling

Published 11 Mar 2020 in math.GM | (2003.06253v2)

Abstract: We describe the construction of a new family of developable rollers based on the Platonic solids. In this way kinetic sculptures may be realised, with the Platonic solids quite literally in their heart. We also describe the strong way in which the Platonicons circumscribe the Platonic solids.
