Abstract
A cuboctahedron-based recreational structure may comprise a plurality of hubs and a plurality of tubes. A kit for assembling the same may comprise a plurality of hubs and optionally a plurality of tubes. The plurality of hubs may include tetrapod hubs, hexapod hubs, and/or octopod hubs, each being configured to receive tubes extending from different ones of the plurality of hubs to form one or more cuboctahedral frames. Each hub may comprise a plurality of tube receptacles. The plurality of hubs and the plurality of tubes may be arranged to form one or more cuboctahedral frames, each having twenty-four edges and twelve vertices. Edges of the one or more cuboctahedral frames may comprise tubes. Vertices of the one or more cuboctahedral frames may comprise hubs. Connections between the hubs and the tubes may be formed by an end portion of each tube disposed within a tube receptacle of a hub.
