A messily drawn triquetra-like manifold

How it started:

I randomly scribbled some (2D) triquetras to depict some concepts for another project I am working on:

[Just ignore the written stuff in the photo.] I actually drew it as 2D. Yet I imagined this/a similar thing as 3D:

This was the result:

I attempted to depict the 2D projections of that 3D plotted manifold as well.

- - -- --- -----

Drawing this manifold has helped me to gain new insights into how I could draw calabi-yau manifolds.

Snow White and the 1026 Dwarfs

Snow White woke up in the strangest little bed!   She'd happened upon the small, cozy house deep in the woods, found nobody at home, and promptly crashed in the first bed she'd spotted.  Sleep claimed her then, dragging her away to a place of relative peace and calm... carefully letting her ignore how tiny all the furnishings were, how oddly low were the ceilings and fixtures. And now, the next morning!  What odd little men surrounded her!  Normally she'd be alarmed by close proximity to so many strangers, but the events of the past day had granted her an oddly calm outlook on life.  Nothing much rattled her anymore. Snow White blinked sleepily, yawned, and stretched.  The men watched her every movement, transfixed. "Do you talk?" She asked experimentally. One older man -- tiny, rotund, and wiser than the rest with a long white beard -- glanced around at the others and nodded.  He adjusted his spectacles and stepped forward. "I'm Doc," he explained with a jolly chuckle.  "And these are my friends: Smarmy, Ragey, Explainy, Glossy, Pookie, Pesty, Grippy, Inebriated, Teary, Swampy, Piggy, Catty, Hitler, Stroky, Zombie,

Snow White laughed and clapped her hands with delight.  "My, there certainly are a lot of you!  I'm ever so sorry for barging in here uninvited, but I don't really have a home any more... would you mind terribly if I stayed for awhile?  I can cook and clean and--" Doc raised a hand, interrupting her gently. "We'd be honored if you stayed!" All 1026 dwarfs nodded in agreement, and were so thrilled they threw Snow White a party to celebrate their new friendship.  The party lasted late into the evening, and everyone passed out with full tummies and a happy smile lighting their faces. The next day the dwarfs arose early and prepared for work.  Snow White cooked them breakfast and when it was time to leave they all lined up at the door to bid her farewell for the day. Snow White expressed her gratitude by kissing each dwarf on the forehead: Smarmy, Ragey, Explainy, Glossy, Pookie, Pesty, Grippy, Inebriated, Teary, Swampy, Piggy, Catty, Hitler, Stroky, Zombie,

Truncated dodecahedron

By cutting off the vertices of the dodecahedron you get the truncated dodecahedron.

This results in the 12 pentagonal faces of the dodecahedron turning into 12 dekagonal (10-gonal) and 20 triangular faces.

(As the dodecahedron has 20 vertices, truncation results in 20 triangular faces.)

[knotty-et-al]

New challenge (to establish a daily routine): Creating one new polytope info card after breakfast - each day.

(That is the first page of the list of the polytopes I want to make. (92 Johnson solids will be very very much, and I have to stop myself from thinking about those many solids. but eeeh. we might approach it step by step... )

So, I started the polytope cards project some time in the summer of this year.

I already made all 5 platonic solids,

some regular 4-polytopes (the 4D platonic solids plus the 24-cell that has no 3D sibling),

and the first 4 archimedian solids.

Today I created the truncated octahedron card:

Yesterday I made the truncated tetrahedron card:

The general template of the cards is as following:

This project is still in progress.

Furtherly I want to add:

Truncated Icosahedron

when my brain becomes more functional and less exhausted again i would like to make some tutorials about how to draw polyhedra on isometric grid paper.

I enjoy drawing truncated solids, because you can literally draw one polyhedron into another and just erase the lines of the previous polyhedron.

Polytope info card of the Snub Cube

Today's shape was the archimedian solid "Snub cube".

The snub cube has 38 faces in total - 6 square faces and 32 triangular faces.

It has 60 edges and 24 vertices.

Each vertex is met by 4 triangle faces and 1 square face.

A snub cube is an alteration of a truncated cuboctahedron.

The drawing:

For the isometric projection drawing I started with a truncated cuboctahedron, and continued to alter the truncated cuboctahedron's octagonal faces into square faces.

Great stellated dodecahedron

For that Kepler-Poinsot-Polyhedron I started to draw an icosahedron and continued to add triangular pyramids as "hats" on top of each of the 20 triangular icosahedron faces.

Drawing a truncated cube and a cuboctahedron from a cube....

As for understanding truncation: You can imagine having a cheese cube and just cutting of the vertices...

Polytope info card of the Truncated Cuboctahedron

Today I finished this friend-shaped archimedian solid.

I drew the tiny drawing in the down right corner of the card and resized it with my printer.

The drawing:

I drew this Truncated cuboctahedron in an isometric projection and used my beloved isometric dot paper.

To start with the truncated cuboctahedron I started to draw a cube (with pencil).

Then I altered the cube by drawing a cuboctahedron in it (with pencil as well). I truncated th vertices of the cube like in the depiction below:

Then I altered the cuboctahedron drawing with another truncation - resulting in the truncated cuboctahedron shape.

[For clarification: I later erased the pencil lines of the cube and cuboctahedron, because it became messy and these lines were just there to help in the drawing process.

For the photo I laid pictures of a cube and cuboctahedron besides the truncated cuboctahedron drawing to show the similarity between these shapes - and present the principle of truncation visually.)

Octahedron(flatten) -> [Octahedron(flatten)](inflate)

Inflatable Octahedron

Another one of today's quick crafts is this "inflatable octahedron":

As I often have problems with having very limited storing space capacity I thought: "Why don't I make an inflatable model that can be stored in a flattened way? "

So, yeah... that is the result. 😅

- - -- ---

As for the crafting process: I used my beloved foldback-clamps (they are such multi-functional items! ) and some basic sticks... I fixated the vertices with basic masking tape...)

- - -- --- -----

some math fun facts:

An octahedron is a regular polyhedron (also called "platonic solid" ) and consists of

• 8 triangular faces

• 12 edges

• 6 vertices
