How to make a Cotton Swab Icosahedron

- In geometry, an Icosahedron is a regular polyhedron with 20 identical equilateral triangular faces, 30 edges and 12 vertices. It is one of the five Platonic solids.
You will need 30 Cotton Swabs & Hot glue.
You saved my ass. I have a college project due next week that's basically building an overcomplicated geometric shape that makes us think of a song we like. I made this (a bit tricky in the corners, but I got there) and I'm gonna pick "Kids" from Stranger Things as the song for it. Thank you 10/10 awesome tutorial!
Lol
Nice idea
Can't Wait To Make This And Share With My 7 yr. young Niece. I Thank You For Sharing♦️💚
Thanks man, hug from Brazil 🇧🇷
Easy to make, also simple
Beautiful! ❤️
why am i watching this..
Because icosahedron is one of the platonic solid it represent water element and it is part of the sacred geometry which is the creation of yhe universe
Because you commented on it seven years ago and some bozo replied, notifying you to check the reply and, this, see the video again.
@@michaelwinter742 and here I am 7 years later with a Math degree
@@TheZein2 Alright, I subscribed to your channel. I look forward to your video posts.
genius! by the way i want a truncated icosahedron(football)
Хоть это видео и опубликовано 11 лет назад, оно мне очень помогло. По информатике задали сделать любую модель, но совсем ничего не получается. Посмотрела это видео, думаю сейчас всё получиться 😢
Can I use this to make head of a BACTERIOPHAGE ???
Stacy Dilsen would be proud.
I always get a room full of gluey spiderwebs when I use my hot glue gun.
as well as the s called the glue gun?
Nice triangle
Nice idea
OMGGgggg !!!!!!!! That's Awesome !!!! Many thanks !!!👍
Cool never did anything like it
Yes.
U r so good! Thanks!
Is there any alternative for hot glue?
Plain ole white glue
SO COOL!
⚠TRICKY TO MAKE⚠ but definitely worth it
Genius xxx
can you make a video for C60
ur gum name
Watching this video after 7 years😐😂
pretty cool!
Impress your math teacher..
why am i watching this..
atef saeed don't know, maybe coz you've got a creative brain.
pics or it didn't happend
but why?
This is awesome! I'll definitely do this for my Geometry assignment. Thanks for the idea!
cosplay research takes you to the weirdest places
2020 Coronavirus pandemic period anyone ?
Neat. This opens up all kinds of ideas for simple things to make.
almost worked but I didn't do a pentagon at the start I did a hexagon
if you do that, you could tesselate the entire world.
Hello my old account... it's me, You... do you remember me... i know you do WE ARE THE SAME PERSON
A guy That draws are you kidding me?
Oh, Yes!! I'm so using this for my Laban Movement Analysis studies!
Thank You So Much....I was very tensed about how I will make the project but you made it easy and simple..... Thanks a lot.....
It's so simple yarr
Ashok Tambe mag ata banav kandil diwali sathi bhau.
Would do it to assign my kids!
You would need 600 dollars to make one out of juuls. Not including tax
2019 anyone
any help on how i can make a 6ft one of these that i can stand in?
I have not made this, but I was lucky enough to move around inside one and I briefly looked at how it was made. This can be taken apart for transport and storage.
You need 30 dowel rods. Calculate the dowel length by taking the desired height of the completed project (72 inches) and divide by the Golden Ratio (1.618) = about 44.5" However, if you are intending to move inside it, make it bigger, so you have room. I'd like one that is 6'8" tall (the height of a standard door), which means the dowels would be 49.44 "
Find a hose that the dowels rods will fit into snugly. You might look in the plumbing section of a home improvement store, or in refrigerator replacement parts.)
The dowels fit into bits of hose at the vertices of the icosahedron. The bits of hose were each a couple inches long.
The vertices of the one I played with were sort of hot-glued-and-rubber-banded together. I don't remember if they used 5 short pieces, or 2 longer ones and 1 short one, to create each 5-part vertex. Let me know if you figure this part out! The flexibility of the hose will correct for some errors.
@@anniejuan1817 Thanks a lot! Since making this post, I enquired around and managed to find someone, they run a 3D shop and the joiners will be made from recycled plastic designed in a 3D printer, and will be able to transport. We are making it around 6’8 too.
How did it make you feel when you inside it?
@@swancrow6339 I was only in it for a moment or two, and I hadn't started studying LMA, so it wasn't as meaningful as it would be now. Are you willing to share where you are getting the connectors created? Also, I realized that the calculations I did above did not account for the connectors, and that those lengths might result in a slightly bigger icosahedron than intended.
Tq for my model 😍🤗
Legend watch it in 2021 😂😂
The principle which you used was very simple
realy cool :)
this guy only has views because of our teacher
That's cool. I googled 5 platonic solids... I see they are 4,6,8,10, and 20 sided. Makes me think of the facets that a diamond cutter creates,but I guess he's just covering a surface with multiple facets. Thanks.
Wow thanks brother
Now how do you get that in your ear? 😆
AMAZING!!
Thank you!
Te iubesc smr
It's preety ❤
I suggest using wooden ones cuz the plastic ones I used just disintegrated
Gum name plse
Who else is here from a school assignment oof
You are amazing!!
Can you make a soccer ball (Truncated icosahedron)? If you can, please TH-cam us?
Thank you
add some sounds
pllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllz
İç mimarlık bolümünü nasıl bırakabilirim. Enter
Is it rhombiscosidodecahedron?
is Platonic solids lend to justice and democracy?
and can you try to do it a little slower thanks
Now you need to truncate it somehow
Thats cooool😎😎😎😎
This is such a pretty shape. I love pentagons.
G-Man's prison
Nice and thanku
i made that with a magnet set
Dont use superglue
U r work is very awesome!! For best results which gum should be used????
면봉으로 공 만들어 주세요
great job this was a fun project to do
Wow
Nice
Rply fast😊😊😊
Thnku g
Vry nyc
thanks
really?
Simple and nice.
Superb....
"Will it blend"?
that is the question
GMM for the win!!
👍
How this use?
It's useful as a teaching tool for a number of different subjects, starting with geometry.
Thank you so much, this project is made easy to do, no rulers or pens needed. 🎉
