Dodecahedral Pseudoglobes

Please read the assembly tips.

Assembling a dodecahedron is a little harder than its low face count suggests. First, few edges are aligned, so there are many separate crease lines. Then, since three edges meet at each corner, all corners are "rigid", therefore some flaps must be glued simultaneously unless faces are bent a bit, which can be difficult with stiff paper.
