content: This small yellow skeleton model of a rhombic dodecahedron has, as the name suggests, twelve sides that are rhombi. It was distributed at a workshop on 3D printing at the MathFest meeting in Washington, DC, in August, 2015. It was given out in connection with a paper by Laura Taalman of James Madison University. The paper was entitled "Printed Catalan Wireframes: Designing with Mathematica, MeshLab, and TopMod." Objects 2015.3169.03 and 2015.3169.05 were collected at the same session.
