How to build?

A short sequence to guide the build.

  1. 01

    Build a wide, stable base and check that the tower does not lean to either side.

  2. 02

    Add the vertical body, reinforcing it with short pieces on opposite sides.

  3. 03

    Arrange the blades at even intervals, keeping each arm close in length.

  4. 04

    Rotate the structure gently and adjust any points that move or lose balance.
