I loved DIY projects when I was a kid. In particular, there were these books which showed you how to make little critters from pipe cleaners, beads, etc. My idea is to make a similar book, but with instructions of how to make a protein out of pipe cleaners.
Similar to this, but with a protien theme
Julian Voss-Andreae’s thesis is sort of a DIY book for building protein sculptures: http://www.julianvossandreae.com/Work/Thesis/Thesis.pdf
