L/W = 1.000 T/W = 0.266 T/L = 0.266 P/W = 0.450 C/W = 0.232 H/W = (P+C)/W+0.02 = 0.702 P/H = 0.641 C/H = 0.330 Vol./W^3 = 0.263Addition # 10 - This design looks quite different than the "Floating Lilly" design. It is surprising what a few changes can do. Cut this in about any material and color, it's easy and pretty fast to do. Cut in refractive indexes 1.54 to 2.14 with no changes.
