First attempt using additional pieces from Christmas days…
I haveĀ added almost twice our previous collection - 360 rods, 240 balls (10xGeomag Color 60) and 3 packages of pentagons.
Unfortunately, it seems that I still don’t have enough pieces. Currently missing some plastic - mainly squares.
I have started with “big” ball. Such a big ball was not possible to make with only 180 rods from previous collection.

From this point I had to worry about stability of the ball - I had used all squares available, so all squares on the top of the ball remained without any support.

But finally, I have managed to complete first ball. For the second ball, I had to use smaller size than planned - again, no squares.

You can see also yellow rods inside first ball - as a reinforcement, to be able to carry other two balls.

All balls completed, just to add some final touch and snowman is complete.
