Assembly projects are lots of fun, and each presents its own unique problems to be solved. Take this one, for example. I wanted to be able to assemble pentagonal faces into a bowl or into a complete hexagon. This meant connectors between the faces that didn't require the faces themselves to move, since by the time we get to the last face, it's all fixed in place.
Solution - double connectors that slide onto matching prongs and hold it all together.
Now, while the overall form is pure solid geometry, the frame-like structure is inspired by bazaars and markets, and gleefully makes a claim for form over function :D
Enjoy!
Nothing tricky here, all designed for easy printing. However, you might want to print a single connector first and test the fit, as that will change between printers, and you want this fairly tight. The connector can be scaled up or down (I'd suggest 5% at a time) to adjust the tightness.

Pleasing design. I had to really fiddle with the clip sizing to fit good. Eventually glued in most places for a permanent arrangement. Another good one to hold yarn.
