I am planning on welding a house of cards using scrap metal and then putting cards on the faces of the metal to make it seem like a normal house of cards. This is a commentary on how if you cannot overcome something, change the rules. Blow all you want, my house of cards is solid. I have already gathered some scrap metal to be used, i just need to mill it and weld it.

    I love the idea. It would be very time consuming, but have you considered etching/engraving the cards onto the metal itself?

    This is a really cool idea, and I enjoy the irony of making a solid house of cards that won’t collapse. How large will the structure be? And are you going to try to hide the entire metal structure with cards?
