I have been wanting to make a dodecahedron out of wood. A dodecahedron is a 3 dimensional object made from 12 pentagons. I decided I needed to make a new sled for the table saw to be able to cut out the pentagons as well as the angle between the various pentagons. I cut two ttracks into the bed of the sled which would allow me to attach an adjustable fence to the sled. This would allow me to cut any angle I needed to. The dodecahedron worked out and glued together quite easily. It has fewer pieces than the 20sided icosahedrons I have made in the past. In the future, I would like to make segmented dodecahedrons that I can wood turn into spheres.
