Description

I've been working on generating wire-frame objects via OpenSCAD from the coordinates provided on David McCooey's website. For large polyhedra, the initial algorithm was very slow.

Taking Paul Draghicescu's customizer as inspiration, this new algorithm can manage much larger convex polyhedra.

See blog post http://kitwallace.tumblr.com/post/80340995278/using-csg-to-construct-polyhedra for links to the polyhedra index and code.

This requires the development snapshot version of OpenSCAD (hence no customizer)

There are two versions of the Dual Stub HexpropelloDodecahedron - one small, the other large - must make the Goldilocks version.
