The Basics of Making Paper Puzzles
1 Pop out the die-cut model pieces
Carefully detach the model pieces from the included cards.
2 Cut out parts as necessary
The paper pieces in this kit are perforated for easy removal, but you will find some tight corners and short edges that are not perforated. Gently free any parts that don’t easily detach by precisely slicing through any restraining material with a craft knife or box cutter.
WARNING! For safety and precision, it is standard practice to move the knife from top to bottom, instead of left to right—this way your hand and the ruler will not obscure where the knife is going.
3 A basic guide to paper folding
Whenever there are parts to be folded, fold each part while paying attention to the type of fold: mountain fold, or valley fold.
