In our EQUILIBRIUM model, we sought to create a new surface for the cube to rest on through two other elements: the dowel and the string. The static dowel essentially stretches the string, creating a strong tension force that can be manipulated by placing knots into slots that we have engraved along the edges of the board. Outside of the string(s) placed on the dowel, we also have them at varying angles stabilizing the cube to prevent rotation or sliding.
