If others are interested in what the Cambridge Polyhedron dial looks like, I have posted my picture of it at www.walkingshadow.info. Click on Images and then CamPoly.jpg. The picture is compressed for the web, only about 103 kb.
I suppose the sundial is multifaceted to reflect Cambridge grads. But the sundial is also a bit odd, misshapen with some rough edges and sharp projections. If you look closely, you can see the camel in the eye of the top gnomon.
