About this 3D model

This is an icosahedron dome designed to be made with drinking straws or other hollow tubes (pipe, straw, bamboo etc.). This is a minor derivative of http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:26860 A quick and dirty hack to use pins for hollow connectors like straws/pipes/bamboo See the thingiverse page for instructions and http://desertdomes.com/pictures/dome/2vdiagram.gif for assembly. Look out! If you print too many connectors you may find yourself under attack from alien pentacles and hexapods (see pics of the invasion i had to fight off). Hint: the one with the extended proboscis is the leader!
