Chapter 12

With hex oriented modules the roof is already flat enough. The model below has extended wall panels rotated to trapezoidal (all except the base
and uppermost module). I like these tall models for dramatic effect. NEXT

 

I have added the photo above next, although it skips a couple of steps, the similarities are interesting to me. This system includes a
three way joint and a truncated version of the rhombic geometry. Note that we no longer have any diamond panels. The points have been
chopped off. Where four panels used to come together (and potentially four modules) there is now a cube or a spot for a cube. Where there was
the three pointed panel vertex is the open triangle. And the rhombicube that we started with is again back. Note the full one on top of the tower.
