3D Surface of Tubes, the Schwarz' P surface with a twist @EdoTimmermans

A tutorial for this shape will eventually be available on Dotpedia, I'm helping Dotpedia to create a large databank of tutorials.
The shape is a variety on the Schwarz' P surface, in that surface each chamber is connected to 6 neighboring chambers with tunnels, the same is the case in this surface.

$Sierpinski octahedron & more The Sierpinski ocgtahedron is a 3D fractal. I remember seeing Sierpinski cubes and tetrahedra made with magnets, but not the octahedron. My build only is the second iteration, with smaller octahedra a third iteration should be possible to make. The other builds in this video, made with the same octahedra: a dodecahedron and a tetrahedron.$
