Awesome cut pattern. And really impressive how fast you present these new puzzles one after another.
Keep up the great work!

This puzzle uses a slightly different cut depth and curve shape than the commercial Helicopter Dodecahedron because otherwise it would be a mess in cubic form.
I've rendered these cut parameters on the Dodecahedron for a comparison:
And here they are sliced in half so you can see that the pentagons are indeed, the core.
These slice cross sections also show how the conical cuts don't have their apex at the origin.

Woah... what an absolutely stunning puzzle
How long have you had these designs for? Surely you're not making these puzzles as fast as they're getting posted...
