Synergy Balls (3) • Model includes templates for printing diamonds on cardstock, to make physical models • (You'll need to print & cut 30 diamonds, for each synergy ball) • When making a cardstock model, connect the vertices with thread, to allow flexibility of the "joints" • Note that this model depicts 3 different synergy balls • The most basic ball (Synergy ball 0) is founded upon the snub-dodecahedron • The differences amongst the three balls are in the size of the pentagonal openings and the degree of pentagon rotations • Theoretically, an infinite number of different synergy balls can be devised, based on pentagon size and rotation • Such balls are chiral, meaning they can be displayed with either, left-handed or right-handed, rotation • Marketed by Stuart Quimby:
