16-Point Modular Star

A modular star that's usually made from 16 pieces, I made while bored in school. The only thing is it fell apart easily so I though putting more together would help it stay together better. It does but only by a little.
So now it's made from ...40 pieces and fairly easily falls apart if some kind of kinetic energy is added.
By the way it's very pointy.
