Buckyball Puzzle: Six Pieces

In honor of Prof. Buckminster Fuller, who taught at SIU Carbondale in the 1960s.

The symmetry of the buckyball is really interesting. To show that, I have dissected it into 6 pieces, of which Parts 5 and 6 are the same.

The buckyball edge length is about 13 mm, based on an icosahedron with an edge length of 40mm. There is a 0.4 mm tolerance between the contacting faces.

Have fun

It is a puzzle; so it could be a bit challenging. If necessary, please refer to the figures.
