I was trying out some of the features of SW2008, and I started getting a bit off tangent... (that's a CAD joke). Anyway, I challenged myself to make a dodecahedron in SolidWorks, using only the software constraints. At first I had to cheat, but I finally found a way to do it, and the other items here just happened after that.

Variation on the Stellated Dodecahedron

It's like a Mobius strip, but 3D. It even has a name, but I can't remember it
 

My 3D interpretation of a pentaflake

This is a hint for someone who wants to model a knot in SolidWorks
 

A knot (3,7)

The same knot with color, showing how it is all one body.

Another knot (7,7)
