OK, I generalized it and it now works for even and odd regular polygons. FYI, It is also totally possible to use various transformations to turn these 1D objects into 3D solids (not demonstrated here). Quick and dirty video demo + code:

Threw together a very quick and dirty editor / 3D model viewer in nicegui for build123d using ocp_vscode and codemirror. Lots of potential as a model configurator too! Video demo:
