Fish
August 20, 2013
Actually we are working on stable structures in hope to figure out how to make things strong enough
to withstand compression and tension.
Triangles are sturdy. Rectangle are not.
Place a cross bar or two makes triangles and so the structure is much more sturdy.
Under tension it can still move.
Use plates for horizontal to vertical stability.
Use plates to extend length.
The fishing poles are under compression at the cracks.
So we can go fishing.
The fish are LEGO magnets and the "hook" is a LEGO magnet.
