Muntatge i muntatge
Follow these steps to construct the Eiffel Tower model. The Flexistix system allows for flexible connections, enabling various structural designs.
- Understand the Components: Familiarize yourself with the bamboo sticks of different lengths and the multi-pronged silicone connectors. The connectors are designed to hold multiple sticks securely at various angles.
- Construcció de la base: Begin by forming the base of the Eiffel Tower. Use longer bamboo sticks and connectors to create a stable, wide foundation. Refer to the diagrams on the packaging for guidance on the initial structure.
- Suports verticals: Attach vertical bamboo sticks to the base connectors, gradually building upwards. Ensure connections are firm.
- Cross-Bracing: Use shorter bamboo sticks to create diagonal cross-bracing between the vertical supports. This adds stability and structural integrity to the tower.
- Layer by Layer: Continue adding layers, progressively narrowing the structure as you build higher, mimicking the iconic shape of the Eiffel Tower.
- Secció superior: Conclude with the spire, using the remaining sticks and connectors to form the pointed top of the tower.
