Make a model......

Explanation:

And you can make the model with plasticene and toothpicks. You know that the most stable conformer will be the one with the bulky groups disposed anti, and the least stable conformer will occur with the bulky groups eclipsed. But a model, a three-dimensional representation, is key to your understanding.......

And the model will help you depict the conformers on the printed page.
