Construction of the pipe cleaner connectors

Minidome strut construction

Cut:

  • 50x 15.5cm tubes (L, purple in construction diagrams)
  • 40x 15cm tubes (M, red)
  • 30x 13cm tubes (S, blue)

Dome construction

-Things to remember:-

  • The dome only consists of two types of triangle - LLM and MSS. If you ever construct any that don't match these, something has gone wrong.
  • All six 5-way hubs can be populated with M pipes before further assembly
  • Similarly, 5 6-way hubs can be populated with only L pipes.
  • M struts never occur next to each other on any single hub.
