Can you make a pyramid with two of these 5-sided geometricaly shaped solid models? More difficult than it looks   :^)

This puzzle requires 2 of the above pieces to be made. You will need 1 sheet of 110 lb. heavy card stock (available from an office supply store). Cut out 2 pieces of the puzzle, folding on dashed lines, using white glue, glue 5 tabs (1 or 2 tabs at a time), to form 5 sided object. If you use a ruler and a sharp point (like a writing pen) and press against dashed lines before you fold, the folds will be much neater. Press hard, but not too hard. Glue sticks may not work.
