GeoConstructix can be used to build a beautiful geometric paper sculpture.
GeoConstructix can also be used as a STEM learning tool to help students learn the fundamentals of geometry and engineering.
Manufacturing
Use a laser print to cut out the following triangles, squares, pentagons, and hexagons using cardstock. Geometric sculptures can be assembled using rubber bands.

GeoConstructix are an adaptable learning tool which can be used to build beautiful sculptures or lamp shades. They can be used by students of all ages to help teach the fundamentals of geometry and engineering. Use LED lights such as [Adafruit Neopixels](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-neopixel-uberguide/overview) to create a creative light and teach electronics and programming.
