Tetrahedron (selfdual!)

Considering the midpoints of edges of the tetrahedron leads to the octahedron! So the only interesting modification is truncating the tetrahedron:

truncated tetrahedron

doubly truncated tetrahedron

midpoints of edges of truncated tetrahedron

dual of the truncated tetrahedron

We also have a sensitive map of these and other relations.
