Jim has his first MakerBot design ready for printing

In Mathematica


In DraftSight (an awesome free AutoCAD clone)
"I made a STL file of a geodesic dome, specifically a stellated, frequency 3 icosahedron.
I made it with Mathematica (version 7) by one simple command:

Export["icos_f3_stel.stl",
Stellate[Geodesate[PolyhedronData["Icosahedron"], 3], 1.1]]

I loaded it into ReplicatorG, and scaled it up.

Cheers,

       IncrediJim
