Scaling down the band rotunda

Today at Enrich I started to build a 20:1 model of the Queens Park band rotunda using popsicle sticks and pipe cleaners. I only got up to building the steps of the band rotunda and it is more complicated than I thought building a scale model of something because you have to measure it then you have to divide it by a certain number. The tallest step was 29 popsicle sticks high (when they were stacked flat)! I think the hardest part of the band rotunda was making the circle that the popsicle sticks were on by using pii.
