The model features a central cube lofted by fixed-length strings, connected to four vertical V-shaped components secured at the base. The angle of each “V” is determined by the placement of a wooden piece. This model explores the duality between the tensile and compression forces acting upon the V-shaped components. The tensile forces in the fixed-length string, created by supporting the heavier cube, pull the arms of the V-shaped components together.
