Tom 13


Hi everyone

Instructions for constructing a crystal model

1) First gather everything you need
• PVA Glue
• 44 Styrofoam balls
• Patience
2) Glue pairs of the white Styrofoam balls together
3) Start with a 4 ball by 4 ball base
4) Glue a 3 by 3 layer on top
5) Glue a 2 by 2 layer on top of the 3 by 3
6) Glue 1 last ball on top
7) Repeat steps 4 to 6 in order to build second half and glue the bottom of the 4 by 4 base.
8) Ultimately the model should resemble a diamond prism
