My entry in Devin Montes' PolyPanel Competition is a 4 frequency Geodesic Sphere made from 6 basic specialty PolyPanels (or you could say "GeoPanels"). It is based on a spherical Icosohedron in the manner of R. Buckminster Fulller (my favorite Super Hero!)I have incorporated Devin's PolyPanel snaps model into each GeoPanel so they are compatible with other non-Geodesic PolyPanels if need be. Each panel took around 40 minutes to print with the settings I used on my CR 10. At the beginning of this project I used a combination of Fusion 360, Cura and ZBrush until I finally learned enough of Fusion 360 to be able to model the panels exclusively in Fusion. Fusion 360 was a huge stumbling block/hurdle in my race to get this done by deadline. It should be named "Con-Fusion 360"!!
