Here's the beautiful five-sided Polypanel you've been searching for your whole life without even knowing it!
Fusion360 File : https://a360.co/2UuCe3t (just tag this model if you remix!)
*05/11/19 Update* Several variations where the wrong size (old versions). Replaced models so they're now all up to standard. Sorry for any inconvenience!

What are Polypanels?
"Welcome to the world of Polypanels, a system of snap together parts that let you build whatever you want! It’s an open-ended, open-source construction toy for making functional things, harnessing the power of 3D printing and the community to make it truly limitless."
A high wall thickness of 5 shells/perimiters will ensure solid snap connectors. From there settings can vary based on your desired outcome. Print solid for the most robust and long lasting joints, or print a lower infill with 0 top and bottom layer thickness for a cool exposed infill pattern.
This download contains many variations, including two part versions for printing with dual extruders or multiple processes. Combine the "_Edge.stl" and one of the "_Inner.stl" files.

The pentagon-edge/open/solid have snaps that are spaced too far apart such that a square's side edges cannot also snap together properly (red). The hexagon (yellow) and octagon (green) have the correct spacing. The spacing on pentagon-vopen/vsolid is closer and might work, but I haven't printed and tested those yet. My printer has been running nonstop when I learned about Polypanels on 3DPN, 148 Polypanels so far, thanks!
