"soccer ball" geodesic sphere

How about that I can still make this one.
Soon on its way to Jon Dietz.
Start with 90 squares, 10 pieces each of nine colors

Make each W shape and fold in half

Fold the PHZZ (pentagon hexagon zig zag) units

start assembly


Add some pieces

And some more


And some more



The geodesic sphere is taking shape

More like a sphere



Closer and closer



Closing in




Just a few pieces left


Ta-Da!  the completed sphere, all ninety pieces in place

Video just for fun:
