Building Blocks for Sacred Shapes

Bucky (Buckminster Fuller) BallDrunvalo wishes he'd had these tools when he first began teaching Sacred Geometry and the science of the Mer-Ka-Ba. With these amazing kits, children of all ages can experiment with the basic shapes of Creation, and in so doing, begin to align with the patterns and energies that inform them.

           Zome is a unique 31-zone system that takes ball-and-stick construction to its highest level.

Available in kits for various shapes and sizes, Zome is a powerful design tool and educational toy for kids and hobbyists, students, teachers and researchers. Precision-molded in ABS plastic, Zome models spatial structures representing hyperspaces of up to 31 dimensions, geodesic space-frame structures, and molecules, including quasicrystals and Fullerenes.

FYI: The shape's official geometrical name is "squashed fractal icosahedron."

123 parts: 33 white nodes, 30 blue struts, 30 yellow struts, 30 red struts each in 3 different sizes.
