Creating a ball from magnetic spheres

I have owned a set of magnetic spheres for some time now and used it to build several sculptures and structures. Here, I would like to show how you can build a magnetic sphere (i.e. a ball) from triangles. You will need either:

Buy sphere magnets in the web shop

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Shape 6 spheres into a circle.
  2. Grasp the circle in two places and squeeze to create a triangle.
  3. Put together 20 of these triangles.
  4. Combine 10 of these triangles as depicted and repeat with the remaining triangles.
  5. Connect the two formations.
  6. Carefully shape everything into a ball (see video).
