Hi all.

I want to do a Geodesic Dome, so I have searched the net for the formulas.

All I've found was a bunch of mathmatical formulas I don't understand and in
one site I've found a pre-made GeoDome with the coords of the vertices. (see
GeodesicDomeTest1.jpg)

But since this wasn't enough for what I wanted, I've wrote a macro to sub
divide the triangles, and this is the result.:
GeodesicDomeTest2.jpg  --> 1 subdivision
GeodesicDomeTest3.jpg  --> 2 subdivisions
GeodesicDomeTest4.jpg  --> 3 subdivisions

Todo next:  wireframe to go with the vertices


Best regards
