A Regular dodecahedron is made of 12 regular pentagonal faces.

In this project 12 pentagon PCBs with LEDS are welded together using solder at the vertexs. The hole in the center is to insert the controller and batteries into the center.

Questions

How big is the RhombicDodecahedron PCB?

It measures 60.6 × 85.7 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the RhombicDodecahedron use?

156 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the RhombicDodecahedron KiCad files?

From the funvill/PolyhedronMobile-PCB repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is RhombicDodecahedron/hardware/RhombicDodecahedron.kicad_pcb and its schematic Dodecahedron/hardware/TetragonalDeltohedron v2/TetragonalDeltohedron.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the RhombicDodecahedron design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask funvill before reusing the design.
