PYRAMID

It looks

like this in

the end!

It’s just a matter of creating the 

very first connection, and 

continuing from there! To follow 

an instruction like this, place all 

the pieces in front of you before 

you start connecting them.

Try to make a basic shape like 

the pyramid below. See how 

strong a structure based on 

triangles can be? Pro tip: Bend 

the Strawbee arms to make the 

edges sharper.

ARM

You can make an arm in so 

many ways! This is a simple 

but very stable way to build a 

mechanical articulated arm.
