After the last post, I did many things with the polyhedron I had — too many to remember the exact sequence — and I ended up with this. I wish I could remember the exact route I took to get here!

The expanded rhombic dodecahedron is in the last post. It took just a bit to turn it into this — using Stella 4d, software you can find at http://www.software3d.com/stella.php.
To make this, a rhombic dodecahedron had each of its faces augmented with prisms, and the I took the convex hull of the resulting figure. This polyhedron has fifty faces, all but eight of which are quadrilaterals.
