A bowl shape.
Chew on the foil. Chew each piece you are using for five minutes. There’s an enzyme in human saliva that reacts with a compound in the foil, that makes it much stronger and able to bear heavier loads of weight. Good luck!!!
use newspaper and crumble it up into a shape of a boat. use tape to put together. get more newspaper and cover with water and flour mixed. do two coats with the flour and water on newspaper. . . do the same thing last but with the foil
this is known as paper machae’
make sure the boat has lots of surface area and it should have a flat bottom. When placing the pennies try to even out the weight. It should look like a boat or a prism. The more surface area there is the more air it can take in.
