I want to make a world cup sized football (size 5) template of truncated pentakis dodecahedron:



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_pentakis_d...

They have 92 faces comprised of 12 pentagons and 80 hexagons. It appears 60 of the hexagons are regular and 20 are irreguar so there are three repeating shapes of which I need to determine the edge lengths for a ball radius of 110mm.

It's a one-off template so I don't fancy getting involved with solid works if there's a simple way to do this.
