While most of the mathematical models and sculptures I've created are composed of polygons and polyhedra, they can also be made using points, represented by spheres or spheroids. I won't attempt to recreate all the structures I've already made with points, as doing so would be tedious for both you and me. Instead, a small sampling will have to suffice, until others are inspired to take up the cause. However, there have been remarkable studies of such structures by Chia-Chin Tsoo and Bih-Yaw Jin, which can be found on their web page: THE BEADED MOLECULES 串珠分子模型的美妙世界
