       Explaination of Zome System
    The Zometool (officially Zome System) is a plastic construction set which lets you quickly and easily build edge models of many complex polyhedra. (A link to the manufacturer is at the bottom of this page.) Building your own is the best way to really understand anything and Zometool models can go far beyond what you can build as paper models.
