Not magnets... steel spheres.

Some people can go over the top... but it's sooo relaxing...
From above.
An icosahedron with attached triangular pyramids makes a pretty star.
Dramatic enough?
Naturally, you can also build pyramids with a quadratic basis.
Somewhere in the midst of these steel spheres, there is one K-19-C.
Note: only the large sphere (K-19-C) on top is magnetic. The other 8 are simple, non-magnetic, steel spheres that are magnetised through the one magnetic sphere.
A pyramid with 10 storeys require 286 spheres and 1320 rods!
This structure rotated with a single push for 25 minutes! The explanation for this is the low amount of friction and the minimal amount of aerodynamic resistance. The low friction stems from the two steel spheres (on top) having contact over a very small surface area only and also because the structure is so heavy, that it is nearly ready to fall. By the way, the two steel spheres are not magnets, but are magnetised through the rod magnets.
