  16. POV Data File of  Compound PolyHedra.
  17. Compounds and intersections of the simple Platonic soids can be used to generate several interesting shapes which highlight the relationships between the Platonics. Several compounds are declared below, with their component solids coloured to show up clearly. In each case, the vertices
  18. of the component solids define one regular shape, while their intersection defines another. (It is interesting to convert "union" to "intersection" and look at the results.)
