Okay if you are anything like me when you have a pack of cards instead of go fish you either play some other card game or try to make a tower. Now most people try build it by making the cards into multiple triangles-which makes sense considering a triangle is the strongest geological shape-seriously a chair with three legs doesn't move as much as one with four legs.
But regardless the triangle isn't stable for building card castles, playing cards are simply too flimsey to stay up very long. So i'm going to make more goild by putting up multiple posts about the way I make the castles, along with picturess from my deviant art.

See this? these four cards have been on my table for about 30 seconds now and haven't fallen. See the thing is each card sort of leans a tiny bit on the other card. If your having trouble dont worry, it took me about 5 minutes to get these up long enough for me to take the picture smile
but regardless It takes a bit of work, and overall it's best not to let them lean to much, and its better if they look like a square from the top.

see this is a top veiw, it has to look mostly square if you look directly up because doing that and keeping it similar is like building a building, you keep all the materials the same general size and shape and its easier to build on.
Once again dont worry if you fall a bit flat

it happens a bit often


EDIT: im not sure why but these pictures aren't showing on my computer, maybe on you guy's they are but just in case
