if you're allowed to clip end off picks, that may help to design correct angles and connections, so it may depend on rules for design unknown, may help to glue pieces together on flat surface using wax paper, don't use very much glue to start with, enough to tack both pieces together and dry quickly, then apply another layer of glue later for strength, use hair dryer if need , bake sets in oven if needed, then clamp set together with rubber bands or clips, then glue connections, let dry, if you can use carpenters glue instead of white glue, that may help, or glue gun as well, so options may vary, even opt to use krazy glue if allowed, possibly draw you basic platform and sides for visual instructions, then gradually build from bottom layers up, have fun mostly,?
