Uniform Compounds of Uniform Polyhedra

    This list follows the order in the paper "Uniform Compounds of Uniform Polyhedra" by J. Skilling, cited in the references. Many of these 75 compounds (plus duals) have never been made in paper, and their pictures appear nowhere else but here. The notations T, O, I, or iP indicate that the compound has tetrahedral, octahedral, icosahedral, or i-sided prism symmetry, respectively. I haven't finished the prisms yet.

    I have also included the duals to many of the uniform compounds. The duals listed are not vertex-uniform, but they are facially uniform. Spinning versions of the compounds with rotational freedom are also avaialble.
