About: 14-gon Circle: the Siamese Ring   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

You need 280 rods, and 14 square panels for this challenge: * Build a few "Siamese Dodecahedra". They take 18 rods each. A fast way to build then is to make two pairs of two linked triangles, and set one on the table. Then take eight rods all joined together and "stitch" them onto the edges of the diamond on the desk. Then drop the other diamond onto the waiting structure. * Build a few square-based pyramids. Link several of the square based pypamids together by their square bases, turn the chain on its side, and push them into an arc. --Karl Horton 20:02, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

Now, use the Siamese Dodecahedra as spacers to build a ring. when you find it, jump with delight, because its only out by half a degree. I'll post pictures in a few days - and do a proper writeup (although I'm horribly backlogged) --Karl Horton 20:02, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
