All Orbit Molecular Model Kits are supplied with our "wobbly" bonds which are made from special plastic tubing and have the following advantages:

lattice structures such as diamond are stiff
layered compounds such as graphite are flexible ("wobbly")
very durable; can be reused in lab/class settings
make virtually indestructible permanent models
clear bonds make overall molecular geometry more visible
can accomodate non-VSEPR geometries
