does anyone know what the poly, comprised of 6 faces of a rhombic dodecahedron, is called ? [ ....a rhombic cube ? ] or if it is accepted as an allspace...

Yes. I recently mentioned the rhombic cube as an all-space-filler and of course there are an infinite number of rhombic cube shape variations. Ro Pro...

The results given by Gilson definitely resonate with ideas on finite motions. cheers. James G. Gilson , Fine Structure Constant ...
I believe you're referring to a rhombic hexahedron. Certainly fills all-space, but limitations imposed by any set of 'game rules' might exclude it for some...

... Yes, the right man to answer (lots of Design Science Toys have a rhombic hexadral piece). Rhombic hexahedra are definitely space-fillers, and you can vary ...
Kirby, ... Can it said then, that our entries on the list of uni-faced space-fillers are currently: the cube, the rhombic dodecahedron, the oblate octahedron...
