Cardboard handmade car making tutorial

Paper cardboard handmade car making tutorial is as follows:

Material preparation: thick cardboard or cardboard, glue, scissors, color pens, wooden or plastic sticks, ruler, pencil.

1, first, you need to consider the style of the car you want to make. You can choose to start with a simple sedan, which has a simpler structure but is interesting enough. You can conceptualize the shape and size of the car in your mind or make a sketch on a piece of paper, which will help to better visualize the structure of the car.

Label the size and position of each part on the sketch, such as the length, width and height of the body, the position and size of the wheels, etc. For beginners, it is recommended to choose a simple but distinctive model to start with, as this will help to get the hang of building faster.

2. According to the designed sketch, use scissors to cut the cardboard into corresponding shapes. You can choose a moderate thickness of cardboard, so that the car produced is more stable. When cutting, pay attention to keep the edges neat and avoid crumbs or burrs.

If needed, you can use colored pens to add colors and details to the cardboard to make the car more vivid and interesting. For example, you can add details such as windows and doors to the body of the car, or add texture and color to the wheels.

3. Use glue to stick the parts of the cardboard body together. Take care to keep it flat and make sure that each part is firmly glued. Use a ruler or other tool to help keep the body flat and symmetrical while gluing. After waiting for the glue to dry, use scissors to trim the excess cardboard for a neater body. When trimming, take care to keep the edges smooth and nice.

4. Choose a suitable round item, such as rubber or marbles, for the wheels. Paste them onto a wooden or plastic stick to form the axle. While taping, take care to keep the wheels and axle balanced so the car can run smoothly.

If needed, you can use small tools to help keep the balance, such as a balance ruler or sandpaper. After waiting for the glue to dry, you can use some lubricant to make the wheels turn more smoothly.

5. Put the assembled body, wheels and axles together and use glue to fix them together, making sure each part is firmly attached. Be careful to keep the car smooth and symmetrical while fixing it.

Wait for the glue to dry and you have a cardboard craft car of your own! Now you can try to get the car running and see how it performs. Feel free to make adjustments and improvements if needed.
