Python script to generate STLs for all of the Platonic, Archimedean, Catalan, and Johnson solids, along with a selection of prisms and anti-prisms.
Download code, install dependencies, and create STL terrain models.
> git clone https://github.com/gecrooks/shapes2stl.git
> cd shapes2stl
> pip install -r requirements.txt
> python -m shapes2stl
Coordinates are taken from https://github.com/glotzerlab/coxeter/tree/master/coxeter/families/data
All solids are scaled to have the same volume as a 1 kg cube of tungsten (38mm (1.5") on a side).
This was a warm up project to get the hang of generating STL files with python.
