This a regular icosahedron built in one line in OpenSCAD using no libraries, and only the value of phi as an input.

I wanted to generate the numbers numerals myself, and I considered roman numerals, seven-segment numerals, and various binary encodings, but I ended up using the library because I realized that there just isn't (currently?) an elegant way to generate numbers in OpenSCAD (and I'll give my 9000 internet points to anyone who can convince me oth
