I wasn't kidding when I said that this pyramid is steep. In fact, with a slope angle of 81.75°, this is definitely the steepest pyramid that I sell, and is set to the dimensions of where the height equals 1, and the perimeter equals 1.16, exactly as the Ra collective suggested was the ideal dimension. The cool thing with this pyramid is that you can get three-foot (and even four-foot) long dowels for the rising legs while still being able to place it on your countertop because of its small width, allowing you to place larger items in it than the shallower pyramids. Printed with 100% all-natural plant-based PLA, this connector piece connects four 3/8" (9.5mm) wooden dowel rods (not included) together with an approximate slope angle of 81.7°. You buy the dowel rods, which can be to any length you desire, as long as they are all the same. Make sure they are as straight as possible. Easily assembled, your pyramid should be placed upon a flat and level surface. If you find any of the dowel rods fit loosely in the holes, add a layer or two of tape to stiffen them up. Use for experiments, including testing to see if it can energize water, preserve food, grow larger sprouts, invigorate garden seeds, enhance the flavors of foods, and even sharpen razor blades!
Ideally, align your pyramid to either true north or magnetic north. After assembling, refer to the Alignment page for specific details.

Proudly handmade in the U.S.A.
These connector pieces are made from 100% all-natural, plant-based PLA. While they can handle being outside in the weather just fine, they could potentially warp in extremely hot weather if left out in the direct sun for prolonged periods of time. Partial shade should be fine.
While these connector pieces are usually in the color that is pictured, they could be in a different color, depending upon the availability of the PLA. I strive to ship out my products within three days at the most, but I cannot guarantee how long it will take USPS to deliver it to you. Usually, it will arrive within about a week from when you order it, but sometimes it can take up to three weeks for USPS to deliver it if there is some sort of delay on their end.
Please be sure to recycle any packaging. If it came in plastic wrapping, bubble wrap, including a plastic bubble wrap envelope, they can all be recycled with your plastic bags at local grocery stores like Walmart and Safeway.
Customers purchasing from outside the United States are responsible for all taxes and duties, including, but not limited to: all customs fees, VAT, and any other tariffs involved to bring this into your country.
Customers from other countries who are purchasing any of my connector kits are responsible for making sure they have the right-sized dowels, 2x2s, or PVC pipe to work with these kits. If you purchase one of these and are not able to find the right-sized dowels, 2x2s, or PVC pipe, I do accept returns, as long as it is returned in good condition, minus shipping costs.
