Paper Structure

Today, we made a free-standing paper structure out of some scotch tape and 3 sheets of newspaper.





193 cm tall 

We made a base similar to a tripod, except the middle part also touches the ground. We focused the center of gravity at the base and luckily, the base was enough to withstand the weight of the entire structure. However, the top of our structure was bending a slight bit. 
Unfortunately, our structure was off by 10 centimeters from the winning group. We should have saved some tape and stuck it at the top. Lol.
