Post-It PHiZZ Ball

This is either a truncated icosahedron or a dodecahedron, according to wiki, and I can't quite tell the difference. We'll just call it the PHiZZ Ball, because, unlike the man who invented it, I'm not a mathematician.

Created from 30 of Thomas Hull's PHiZZ (Pentagon-Hexagon Zig-Zag) Units. Folded out of 3 in. x 3 in. Post-It Notes. DO NOT USE POST-ITS FOR THIS MODEL! They are way too thick. I also tried for proper 3-edge coloring, but failed at the very last moment. Damn.





So the next step is to do the Torus, right? ;)

The unit itself is here, but I couldn't have done it without the video on joining the units, here.
