Tinker's Tower

The Tinker's Tower, crafted and served each Brickmas (Scrapday, Tinkermoon), is an elaborate gingerbread structure held together by angles and gravity alone. The sacred food of the Tinker, the tower is meticulously designed so that it will hold its shape without "cheating" by using icing. As well as a fun Brickmas activity, the creation of the tower doubles as a teaching tool in physics, architecture and engineering. Thus the tower is emblematic of the Tinker's philosophy that everything should have a practical function.
