Master Chopasaurus Triacontahedron
David Pitcher's Insanity Cubed
David Pitcher's Ultimate Insanity
The cuts are generated by a cone which allows for a range of curvy or planar cuts. The default (Jaap's) depth ranges from 0 (deep cut) to 300 (shallowest cut). The default cone apex is the center of of the puzzle (0) which creates curvy cuts whenever the depth isn't also set to 0. You get a planar cut whenever the depth and the apex are set to the same amount. The apex units are always Jaap's depth so if you use degrees for the cut it will be hard to achieve perfectly planar cuts without doing some math to figure out what depth the degrees work out to.
To prevent interference with the solid when the apex is outside of the puzzle (outside of the range [-300, 300]) clipping is used.
Twisty Renderer is based on Jaap Scherphuis's Sphere Symmetry Applet. The POV-Ray code to do the rendering was originally written by Stef-n. Much of the analysis of which polyhedra to include was done by Matt Galla. Many of the polyhedra would not have been possible to impliment without David McCooey's Visual Polyhedra site. The web interface is by Brandon Enright.
