Key facts
| Diameter | 57 |
| Blocks | 3260 |
| Depth | 25 |
| Layers | 25 |
| Height | 25 |
Materials needed
To build this Ellipsoid you will need:
| 3260 blocks | 3260 |
| 51 stacks of 64 | 51 |
| about 14 minutes | 14 |
All three axes are different - the widest ring is horizontal, while the height and depth axes shape the rest.
How to build it
- Lay the widest ring on the long horizontal axis first.
- Build the depth-axis ring at right angles through the center.
- Stack layers toward the top and bottom, shrinking the ring each time.
- Keep the three axes symmetric - width, height and depth.
- Smooth the surface with slabs where the curve is steepest.
