I thought it would be interesting to show some of the Card structures that were constructed for
Card-DI-ology and when possible to show some of the methods used for constructing the structures.

Most (but not all) of the teams at Global Finals constructed their structures using Glue.  They determined that they could score higher using glue and give up the 15 point bonus than they could without using glue.

We only have a few pictures at this time.  If you would like to contribute a picture and an explanation of your construction technique then please email the webmaster at distructurewebmaster@texasdi.org
