My leaning tower of newspaper originally started out as the idea of folded pieces of paper intersecting as a square like the building blocks that snapped together when creating log cabins. however I discovered that when you put weight on top of it the structure would sink down more than I'd thought. I decided to the fold the paper and stack them with thicker pieces of paper stuck between every couple of the flatter pieces to hopefully hold the weight of the block and staying stable at the same time. I am obviously not an engineer because all I succeeded in doing was creating a slinky effect when it fell over, however it still squished down enough to hold the block. Out of it all if I could make another I would add some sort of support on each to sides to help keep it from falling.
