I formed the proxy manually if that's what you mean. The octagon is just a polygon or a circle with 8 sides. I didn't use the "Subdivide Selection" here. Just the octagon using the circle tool and then the lines with the line too and moving everything up from there.

Here's a quick .skp showing the steps.

I get this:
If the triangulated SD diagonals are not in the direction desired you can also use the Sandbox tool to 'flip' them as required

Great work Guys.
I do think Jean's column should end with "Just Ideas" though. :D
