m* is a nonconvex polyhedron with all regular faces, and the smallest known non-self-intersecting 5-4-3 acrohedron. It was first described and named by Bonnie Stewart in Adventures Among the Toroids, and rediscovered during the search for acrohedra. It can be formed as an outer-blend of m with a pentagonal pyramid.[1]
