Anyone else enjoy making card castles? When I was in high school, I made one out of a full deck of cards (not a triangle! disappointing!). Wasn't sure what to do with it once I was done...

Live in it? :wink:

I've tried making them as a kid, but I lacked patience and steady hands. My brother could do them.

I tried with eight cards, I think it was... that was only once or twice. Never really tried it again after that.

I used to build card castles with my mum and my sister all the time as a child.

When I was a kid my dad worked for an airline, and he'd sometimes bring a home pack of cards that the airline made for promotional purposes. So, I ended up with 5-6 decks of cards, and built lots of card fortresses with them. Can't remember if I got to 5 levels, but probably did.

I was pretty good at card castles as a kid. I was far more patient than I am as an adult.
