Good work, good effort, don't stop evolving the idea!

Carbon 60, the allotrope of carbon was just named after buckminster fuller because it had visual siminarities with the geodesic dome when in fact he was more about dividing up platonic solids and raising key points up to the sphere with was around them. Still got to be said, incredible idea, and for a 12 year old. Love the construction method aswell very elegant. Thats not a geodesic dome, thats a truncated icosahedron.
