Do you need a quick print to try a new setting or filament, but you have too many XYZ cubes already? Here is an "impossible" dodecahedron inside a 20mm cube to keep your other cubes company!

Not really a calibration print but moderately difficult due to thin columns, bridges and overhangs. Good part cooling recommended.

Printing:

Add the "box" and the "dodecaZ" files to your slicer. SuperSlicer will automatically put the dodecahedron inside the box, but Cura places them next to each other so you have to reposition them manually. You won't get the dodecahedron inside the box after printing :)

Turn off "thin walls" before slicing! As of writing, both SuperSlicer and Cura will generate unsupported thin walls that don't connect with the perimeters.
