3. The Acrylic 🔮
As mentioned previously, there are two methods of creating the mirrors for the faces, Two-way mirrored acrylic sheet, or clear acrylic with one-way mirrored film.
If you have bought the frame or STLs only Clear acrylic + film is the least expensive option, however is much more difficult to accomplish. Overall the more expensive option produces a clearer finish and saves time, if you’re on a budget I would recommend the film option. But for the better results I would recommend the acrylic mirror sheet.
The mirror sheets are press fit into the sides of the dodecahedron. Providing they're cut with the dimensions previously mentioned.
Square Base:
X: 164.80mm
Y: 164.80mm
Z: 3mm
Triangle Side:
X: 165.70mm
Y: 168.20mm
Z: 3mm
If you have purchased the kit, your parts will fit fine. However if you are building from the frame or STL only kit, I would recommend asking for test cuts with those dimensions. As we cannot account for suppliers tolerances in manufacturing.
