We made a half pyramid for practicing and testing the design of our climber. (By "We", I mean one of our mentors, Mr. May, did all the design, welding, and assembly. Thanks, Andy!)
We chose to make a half pyramid instead of whole, to save on cost and storage space. It still has 2 faces, one full corner, and full basket at the top (not yet assembled), so we can practice any climbing strategy that we've thought of.

It sure is nice to have a strong, accurate pyramid for testing.
The question is like asking "Is it better to drive by looking at a map the whole time or by remembering where you want to go and watching the road instead?" - lukevanoort [more]
