How to make a bulk digit - the basis
Basis of cardboard
The basis can be made from an ordinary cardboard box of medium or large size. For this we need:
- cardboard;
- pencil;
- ruler;
- stationery knife;
- malyary Scotch (It is desirable to use precisely the malarious tape, since when working with ordinary scotch, problems may arise in the form of dug-off sides).
Draw on the cardboard the outline of the selected digit. With the help of a stationery knife cut the number. Cut the digit attached to another cardboard, circle and cut out. You will have two digits of the same size. Then cut the side walls. To do this, draw strips of the desired size and also cut out. The size and width of the number can be any at your discretion, depending on the sheet of cardboard, which is at your disposal. Prepare all cardboard blanks, glue the edges by painting scotch.
Foam base
The basis can also be made of foam. For this we need:
- polyfoam of the desired height and width;
- stationery knife;
- hot glue (if necessary).
Using the stationery knife, cut out the base of the selected digit from the foam. If the width of the polyfoam seems to you less, then cut 2 bases and glue them together. It is better to fasten them with sparecrows among themselves and with the help of hot glue.
