Thank you. That's just what I needed to see that the compressive forces are simple transferred to the side of the dowel that faces it's string.

Brilliant! I´m an architecture professor in the Univerity of Buenos Aires and this is perfect for my students to watch and become familiar with the concept of tensegrity. Doumo arigatou gozaimasu

Gorgeous. It looks similar to an icosidodecahedron, but it can be described as several other polyhedra as well! I've made dozens and dozens of polyhedra out of many types of different origami modules. I've yet to try doing them in Tensegrity! Thanks so much!
