Default toothpick towers
well I have to make one for physics

rules:
height minimum of 35cm
weight 35g
width minimum of 5 cm
only toothpicks and woodglue can be used (no epoxy, superglue, etc.)

here is a design I just made

although acording to my crappy scale, 5 toothpicks = 1 gram so I'm about 2x overweight [surrender]

any ideas or know any sites with examples. I couldn't find much with google

I would like it to hold at least 200 lbs
