My Seventy-Seventh Design: Mandala Hermes

 

I found the unit for this mandala on 22 August 2021. But I left it that way. I assembled it on 10 September 2021. It still didn't have a name.

On 15 September 2021 I named it Hermes, not after the Greek god, but after a friend's cat who died that day. Good bye Hermes! Your name will live.

You'll need 14 units and glue.
