Setup and Assembly
Plus-Plus pieces are designed to interlock easily. Each piece has a unique shape that allows for connections on all sides, enabling both flat (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) constructions.
- Understanding the Piece: Each Plus-Plus piece is a single, uniform shape. Familiarize yourself with its structure.
- Connecting Pieces: To connect two pieces, align the "plus" shape of one piece with the opening of another and gently push them together. They should fit snugly.
- Building in 2D: Lay pieces flat on a surface and connect them side-by-side to create mosaic-like designs, pictures, or patterns.
- Building in 3D: Connect pieces at angles to build upwards and outwards, forming three-dimensional structures like robots, animals, vehicles, or abstract sculptures.
- Disassembly: Gently pull pieces apart. Avoid excessive force to prevent damage.
