Each module has 5cm x 15cm. You'll need 6 modules for each tetrahedron (total of 5 x 6 = 30 modules). In this video I'm showing only how to make one tetrahedron, you'll need to build 5 all intersecting. In the link below you can find the diagram and some tips on joining the modules:

It really is a challenging puzzle to put it all together but it is also very fun! Good luck!


If you were not able (or don't wanna try) to intersect all tetrahedra, there is another video showing the complete assembly:
