The Archimedean solids are the 13 polyhedra that are convex, have identical vertices, and their faces are regular. They don't include the Platonic solids, which have identical faces.
All 13 can be listed in Mathematica with the expression
In[1]:=PolyhedronData["Archimedean"]
Out[1]= {Cuboctahedron,GreatRhombicosidodecahedron,GreatRhombicuboctahedron,Icosidodecahedron,SmallRhombicosidodecahedron,SmallRhombicuboctahedron,SnubCube,SnubDodecahedron,TruncatedCube,TruncatedDodecahedron,TruncatedIcosahedron,TruncatedOctahedron,TruncatedTetrahedron}
An .STL file for any of them can be generated with the function
model[name_] := PolyhedronData[name] // Export[name <> ".stl", #, "STL"] &
All of the files can be created with one line:
Map[model,PolyhedronData["Archimedean"]]
These files are provided here. A .3mf file is provided, together with a .gcode file that will print all 13 polyhedra in roughly the same size (pictured) in about 9 hours with the Prusa Mini+.
