####Dodecahedral Cups

A local elementary school (Lewis) invited me to showcase 3D design and printing for a large group of young children on their "Discovery Day." I need some designs that are interesting and funny-looking to children, yet mathematically appealing. I thought of the dodecahedron, which I manipulated a bit to entertain the children.

They look nice and are easy to print. I think others might be interested in tinkering with them. So here they are.
