I usually use method (2) - one tab glued under the joining face. It's much the quickest way when it's done right . Also, it offers the most foolproof way to number the assembly sequence, matching Tab 1 to Edge 1, etc. It makes a huge difference (especially to the beginner) how sensibly the tabs are ...

Branko does not list any title "Vertically transitive polyhedra" on the pages linked. Is that the title of the hardcopy you have, or is it called something else? I think it is safe to assume that "vertically transitive" means that all vertices lie within the same symmetry orbit, i.e. they are all eq...

Hi Rob, I bet you only posted this so it would hook me in! ;) I am new to this forum, so I hope I am not repeating stuff the rest of you already know. Like the snub cube (and all uniform polyhedra), this facetting has vertices all alike within its symmetry - we say that it is isogonal. As you say, i...
