It is food for thought. Regarding Mr. Vigo variation for "Stellated Curved Tetrahedron" I have used ellipses instead of circles to substitute the hexagons, with major axis equal to the diameter of the circle circumscribed to hexagon and minor axis equal to the diameter of the circle inscribed in hexagon, major axis along the radius of the paper. This way the base of resulting cone is a circle. Dear Mr. Chapman-Bell

Yes, the variation is made replacing hexagons by circles whose radi coincide with the hexagons side length (or smaller, if you like). Keep on with you good job!
