Answer 1

try this link - the easy way

The hard way (but not too hard)

Thin pieces of foam core or illustration board

and a hot glue gun.

Use an xacto-knife to cut the shapes out of the foam core.

(it cuts pretty easy)

If you have the time you can create

the detail by cutting out sections

from the tower/foam core to represent

the structure.

Use the hot glue gun to fix the 4 sides

together.

If that becomes too messy or you run

out of time either paint the detail (acrylic paint)

on the foam core or enlarge a good image

of the tower and paste it on the foam core.

You may have to build the top section

and bottom section separately and then

fit them together.

You will need a good side view of the tower.

Use this as your template for the model.

Good luck.

go to a toy store and get the 3-d model that they have of the Eiffel Tower. Since its due in a few days go on wikipedia or an encyclopedia and look up the dimensions of the Eiffel tower. Then get some clay or play doe and make a small replica of the eiffel tower.

Answer 3

You could use some type of rods... toothpicks are hard to work with. Popsicle sticks might be somewhat difficult but not as difficult as toothpicks (toothpics are too small) well why not make it like paper mache or something. That might now work either. well unless you were going to make it bigger. what about something metal? Or you can use lot's of items then maybe put a layer of something around it so it will all look the same! get some pictures off of google, make them as big as your modle, try and make some guidelines or something. And you better get to work!

Oh well.... hmm good luck with that project.

you have left it way late!!! go to craft or hobby store and buy a large package of popsicle sticks. they come about 100 for a couple of dollars. also buy a flat wood placque to build it on. and some E-6000 glue.
