Description

Boost MeTHANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!! I cannot believe the attention this has gotten! Please consider boosting if you can, I'm new to this hobby and really want to expand my toolset :) 

A Useful Tool to learn about Stalactites and Stalagmites and to remember which one is which!

This is an easy STEM tool to help teach how cave formations are formed. This 3d Model is designed to be porous so that you can add water and watch as it drips in small droplets slowly from the stalactite and eventually falls and hits the stalagmite. 

 

Together with verbal explanations, this model will ensure students get a visual learning experience without leaving the classroom!

 

TIP: The slow drip can also be used as a great relaxation desk ornament!

Assembly

This couldn't be easier, this model prints on a single plate, in 6 parts:

  • 4 x Legs
  • Stalactite with base
  • Stalagmite with base

Simply pop the legs into the slots of both bases, then add water and enjoy!
