I see what he's getting at. I'm messing around with a tesselated sphere. If you start at the top, you can find 5 tirangles, merge them and then you can use the bevel tool on them. Although I think there is an advanced bevel/smooth shift tool on later versions of LW but I haven't used it yet.

EDIT. Actually, the tesselated spheres don't produce the "football" pattern needed to make a pentagon/hexagon structure exactly. You get an interesting design though.
