Geodesic Dome

This is a makerbot-sized interlocking 2V/L2 icosahedron dome (reference: simplydifferently.org/Geodesic_Dome_Notes ). Might be useful if you're planning a moon colony or are building a really small radar set. Or print it in PLA and you have the shade for a nifty lamp. In any case, here it is.

Notes:
1) You'll need 30 of the A-A-B panels, 10 of the B-B-B panels, and 10 of the B-H panels.
2) This should be about 30cm in diameter and about 20cm high when assembled.
3) The panels should be error-proof, i.e. they should interlock only one way.

UPDATE:
I have added DXFs for anyone who wants to use a lasercutter.
