Cellular Tower Kit
R160,00
The task involves designing and making a model of a cellular tower. Cellular towers are structures with antennas and electronic communication equipment that enable wireless communication devices like cell phones to connect to a cellular network. The example shown is a tower that is made of a series of triangles of equal-size and alternating compression and tension diagonals. The kit consists of a number of wooden components that can be joined using wood glue or contact glue. It is recommended that the model should not be higher than 405mm.
