Cubeecraft is a pretty awesome idea. You start with a gorgeous print out of something cool, and when you’re done cutting and folding, it becomes a free-standing work of art. That is, if you follow these instructions to the letter.
- You will need: scissors, a hobby knife, a printout of your chosen cubeecraft model.
- Gather everything and sit somewhere comfortable. If you own an expensive table, sit there. Your hobby knife will love tracing patterns in the wood.
- Carefully cut the model out of the paper. See all those little white spaces in-between tabs? Ignore them. They can’t be important, right?
- With your hobby knife, trim away excess paper and cut open any slits in the model. If you can’t be arsed to round tight angles with the knife, just rip it with your fingernails. That’s cool.
- Lightly fold all tabs and creases in your soon-to-be model.
- Match up letter tabs and slots and bring them together. None of them will fit since you’re a klutz with scissors, so just ram them in there. Bonus points for squeezing your model and ruining it.
- Flip the model over and insert the tabs there, too. When that happens, other, previously-assembled tabs will pop out. Curse under your breath. Some examples: dammit, son of a whore, shit.
- Spend half an hour rotating the model around inserting tabs for the fourth time in a row.
- Get pissed off and go watch TV. You hate cubeecraft, anyway.
- Realize TV sucks and come back to your project an hour later. Try folding tabs into slots again. Fail.
- Get some tape, wrap it around the damn thing, and you’re done. There, fucking cubeecraft!
P.S. I actually like Cubeecraft. :-)
