More than eighty paper model templates, ready to cut out and fold up, available to print out or download.
List of links to sites on the topic, plus a few renderings of the shapes.
A proof that each configuration of polygons around a vertex results in a unique polyhedron, plus Java applets for rotating the images of the shapes.
The five regular polyhedra mapped onto the surface of their surrounding spheres, which can be rotated in java applets. Also includes a discussion of the mathematical properties of the shapes.
Images of paper models, plus some vrml models. In English, German, and French.
Collection of VRML models generated by a QuickBasic program named Hedron. A number of the models aren't seen elsewhere.
Contents, reviews, and errata of the book (CUP, 1997).
An extensive library of images and vrml models of the shapes. Includes uniform polyhedra, stellations, spherical platonic polyhedra, polyhedral mirrors, hyperbolic tesselations, plates from Bruckner's 1906 polyhedra book, and a stellation java applet.
Hundreds of ray-traced polyhedra, their duals, and their properties, plus Polyhedra 2001, a real-time viewer available for download (uses OpenGL).
Templates for paper models for each of the 5 Platonic solids and the 13 Archimedean semi-regular polyhedra, in pdf format.
