Now that the materials are ready, it is time to put things together. Like I said earlier, the manual will show you how to gather things together. There are up to 20 models you can follow, but it is also open for you to explore your imagination and come up with a masterpiece.

For the bridges, you will learn to maximize the strength of the structure by trying out models such as the Truss bride, the cantilever bridge, the arch bridge, the rope bridge, and a suspension bridge. The skyscraper building methods are also as technical, but do not worry, the guide has you covered. Feel free to try out any of the 5 skyscraper models in the manual or simply use your imagination to construct the highest skyscraper you can think of.

Do not worry about the insufficiency of the materials, you can simply get more of Thames and Kosmos plastic construction materials here. This allows you to explore your imagination more and come out with something beautiful.
