The panel-free monster - GrahamB[]
- Start by makeing a base "ring" of 5.
- Then with a bit care tilt the ring and create another.
- Keep adding until you have 15 points all joined up.
- Now you can start the delicate task of adding the final 5.
- To make the stability slightly better it is possible to add a length of 8 rods with a single sphere at one end to keep the highest 5 points supported.
- Once you have added the last 5, using 2 rods at at time go around and link them all.
- Now you can finish the last supports with the remaining rods.
- Sit back and admire your effort.
Modification by Musikart001[]
This is Karl Horton's Modular Model, the only modification is that i removed the dodecahedra connecting module and added pannels to the half truncated icosahedra.
