Tips & Information
A few pointers that may improve the assembly process.
Paper
- Use quality craft paper and avoid thick card stock
- Most models use 3-4 color sheets per building
Printing
- Laser printer may give sharper results and last longer, but inkjet works fine
- Set printing options to grayscale
Folding
- Score the edges with a blunt object along a ruler
- I use a mechanical pencil for scoring, but retractable pens and other things work well too
- First fold should be in opposite direction of final resting position
- Fold in both directions a few times for sharp edges
Gluing
- Regular Elmer’s glue works great
- Apply glue lightly
- If attaching flat surfaces, let dry under a heavy book to prevent warping
