We will need: matches, a compass, a ruler, a pencil (well sharpened), a notebook, a protractor (you can do without it).

1. We will produce an assembly panel as auxiliary tool for making crafts. First, let's draw a template for the machine. Here is a drawing for making a wheel consisting of 15 links. Using a compass, draw a circle with a radius of 4.2 cm and divide it, using a protractor, into 15 sectors same size(24 degrees).

In principle, a wheel can consist of 14 links. And such a design would be even preferable, since with 15 links the supporting matches have a very high voltage.

2. As soon as the drawing of the tool is ready, you can begin to manufacture it. We take an unnecessary book that has a hard cover and cut off the cover from it. Next we will use a hammer and nail to knock out holes on this cover.

3. Cut out the drawing and paste it on the cover. We punch holes in it in the places marked in the drawing. The backing can be the same book from which the cover was cut.

Such a book could well be, for example, a book about Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx.


4. Let's start assembling the wheel. We select matches, discard split, thin, bent and crooked ones. We stick support matches into the assembly panel.

5. We begin to fill the gaps between the supporting elements with load-bearing matches. Each subsequent match must overlap the previous one.

6. Raise the first supporting match of the ring in advance. It will overlap the last 2 matches of this ring.

7. We insert the penultimate carrier match.

8. Place the last match in the ring.

9. Press the first 2 matches of the ring down, then press down the remaining matches of the ring. By analogy, we lay the second ring.

10. Place the third ring.

11. Place the fourth ring.

12. Place the fifth ring. Once again we will consider in detail the process of laying the last two supporting matches.

13. Raise the first supporting match.

14. We insert the penultimate carrier match.

15. Place the last match in the ring.

16. Gently press down all the match-carrying wheels. The assembly panel can then be lifted.

17. Turn the assembly panel over and begin to carefully squeeze the support matches out of the holes in a criss-cross pattern. To do this, you can use a match.

The wheel of matches is ready.

Every boy loves to play with cars; he won’t be able to assemble them on his own anytime soon. metal structure, but teaching a child to make paper models is very easy. Parents will need a little time, paper, glue and scissors. You can create such machines using the origami technique or 3D design, for each method there are necessary materials, instructions and recommendations.

How to make a car from waste material?

The older the boy gets, the more interested he will be in complex models, including those made from paper. Parents can only suggest which creativity is more exciting, provide the necessary materials and good mood to complete the task. For boys, among all models, cars enjoy great prestige, and buy every day different designs will cost parents a pretty penny. After a while, the child will lose all interest in these beautiful cars, so it is more interesting and useful to make the design yourself. It doesn't require much financial costs, just desire and time.

You can create cars not only using ready-made schemes, but also using improvised means, for example, cardboard and matches, wooden sticks And colored paper. For example, take several cardboard cylinders left after toilet paper, cover each one with colored paper. After the fake has dried, it is necessary to cut a rectangular hole on the surface of the cylinder, leaving a little space on one side so that it can be bent and thus make a seat for the driver.

The design can also be decorated inside using felt-tip pens or a marker; to create a steering wheel, you should cut a circle out of white paper and glue it opposite the seat. The machine can be additionally decorated with applications made of colored paper, choosing different shades. If the car is a racing car, you can put a number on it if ambulance or fire model, then you can also cut corresponding signs or draw them. To secure the wheels, use small bolts or plastic bottle caps.

Volumetric 3D paper cars

To complete the work, you need to prepare a printer, a sheet of paper, scissors, cardboard material, as well as glue, colored pencils, paints or felt-tip pens.

The instructions are very simple; you can assemble a paper machine without any special skills or knowledge. First, you need to print out a model of the machine you like on paper, then glue the sheet onto cardboard to make the structure durable. The image is cut out along the contour; this is another advantage of this technique of creating a paper machine.

Important ! All the lines are already marked on the sheet, so it will be easy for the child to fold the model, just bend it along the contour and hide the remaining wings of the workpiece inside.

These white ends must be glued together so that the structure does not fall apart, and if the cardboard is strong enough, then you can use super glue rather than stationery PVA. After that, the most interesting thing for the boy is to decorate the car at his discretion.






















A simple way to create a paper car

WITH paper cars It’s just as fun to play as with metal or plastic ones, you can arrange real races, and you can also build a garage, decorate all the structures with felt-tip pens, and use a toothpick to make a flag.

To create a paper machine you will need a square piece of paper; it should be folded in half, then the edges should be unfolded and reverse side bend them towards the middle of the sheet. Then, fold the edges again in the opposite direction and fold the sheet of paper in half. Apply the outline of a car to the material; to do this, wrap it top corners, then tuck them in, two corners will peek out from below. They are also folded inside, after which you need to make wheels for the car.

Bend the lower corners back, rounding them a little, thus creating wheels; in front, to make headlights, the corners must be laid inward. Do the same with back side cars, all parts vehicle you can draw, for example, wheels, headlights, doors or a driver behind the wheel. 15 minutes of time and a beautiful paper car is ready.

Origami machine

This is a unique art that involves the creation of unusual paper figures, including cars. To work, you just need to stock up on colored paper and patience, it’s very easy, so you not only can, but also need to involve children, together you can create a whole fleet of cars. Or you can make a car out of banknote and give it as a gift to a friend.

To create, for example, sports car, you need to take a rectangular sheet, as a rule, the aspect ratio should be 1:7. The work begins by bending the upper right and left corners, thus creating all the necessary folds. The next step is to fold the top of the sheet, along with the folded corners on the left and right. Small triangles will remain sticking out, which should also be folded towards the middle of the sheet of paper.

Next, you need to fold the sides of the leaf, fold the bottom part, follow the same algorithm that was performed when folding the top part of the paper. All that remains is to fold the structure in half, tuck in the triangles that are peeking out and that’s it, the machine is ready.

    Making wheels from paper

    To avoid repetition, a description of the manufacture of wheels is given separately. The corresponding texts contain only the dimensions of these parts and a link to a drawing that explains how to make a wheel. Here are the most simple designs. Comfortable material serpentine is used for making wheels. Such parts can be made in different colors, for example, part of the wheel (inner) can be made of one color, and a serpentine of a different color can be screwed on top. To prevent the material from unwinding, its ends are glued. IN wooden models It is better to make wheels from plywood. Some designs can use other materials, such as empty spools.

    The simplest is a wheel made of cardboard. A circle is drawn on the material required diameter and cut out the disc. If you need to make many identical parts of small diameter, it is better to use special tools- notches. In circle work, this tool is necessary, as it allows you to simplify the process of making discs and improve their quality. You can make a few cuts yourself. To do this, you need to take a small tube of the required diameter and sharpen one end. It is better to cut down at the end part wooden block or thick timber. Wheels made from one disk are glued directly to the model.

    For complicated models, wheels are made from several disks. Prepare required quantity identical parts, lubricate them with glue and connect 2-4 disks together. To make the wheel beautiful, a circle of smaller diameter is cut out of thin paper and glued to the workpiece. A hole for the axle is pierced in the center with an awl. Then a tread is drawn with a felt-tip pen (Fig. 41 a - d).

    With good work skills, the design of the wheel can be complicated so that it looks voluminous and beautiful. A strip is cut out of thick paper, toothed valves are made along the edges, they are bent, and a ring is glued from the blank. Then two cardboard disks are cut out, a hole is pierced in the center with an awl and glued to the ring on both sides. Finally, finishing is performed (Fig. 41, (e - h).

    Making crafts with children always gives positive results. The motor skills of the hands and fingers, the eye, orientation in space, the ability to use scissors, the strength of the hands and fingers, creativity and imagination develop. Children repeat the features of cars, find out what parts they consist of. All this develops the thinking of kids.

    Joint activities with parents also have their pleasant side. The child’s speech, ability to distribute responsibilities, and show initiative develops. If parents decide to do handicrafts at home with the boy, then they will not find a better pastime than making a paper car with their own hands. Let's imagine several options for cars made of paper and cardboard.

    Racing car

    Will be needed following materials: cardboard cylinder (leftover after using toilet paper), black and white cardboard, scissors, white and colored paper, felt-tip pen, pushpins, PVA glue.

    First you need to take a cylinder and cover it with colored paper. We cut out 4 black circles and 4 smaller white circles for future wheels under the stencil. If you want there to be no holes in the front and back, then you need to trace the round part of the cylinder on a sheet of any colored paper. Next you need to cut out a circle larger size, cut the excess in the form of triangles, onto which glue is subsequently applied. Then everything is glued to the end of the cylinder. Before gluing the circles to the back and front of the cylinder, you need to glue or draw the headlights, radiator grille or rear brake lights.

    Then all that remains is to assemble all the parts of the paper machine with your own hands. For the driver you need to cut a hole with scissors. The wheels should be pierced in the center with a button and bent inside. At the end of the work you need to draw decorations on colored paper. For example, a number or stripes on the sides, because the created car is a racing car.

    Engine

    The next option for making a paper machine with your own hands will be a toy steam locomotive. It has two main parts: the driver’s cabin and the trailer. To get started, you need to prepare scissors, PVA glue, corrugated packaging cardboard, colored paper, bolts and nuts, rope and an awl.

    On cardboard you need to draw the shape of a steam locomotive and a trailer and 8 identical circles for the wheels. After carefully cutting out the parts, cover them with colored paper. The application should be detailed: a pipe, a driver's window, headlights, wheels, you can also glue square windows to the trailer.

    At the end, the parts are assembled. The boy will be interested in working with real tools: using an awl to pierce holes for wheels and ropes, tighten bolts and nuts, and tie the trailer to the train with a rope. Before making paper with his own hands, dad must explain the safety precautions for using scissors and an awl. The train assembled in this way will roll, and the boy will be more interested in playing with it.

    Machine according to the scheme

    An interesting option would be self-production DIY paper machines according to diagrams. Models of real cars can be purchased in the store, or you can use the example to draw your own version of the model. Using the sample, we draw all the details in 3D projection. Next, using scissors, carefully cut along the contour and bend the edges of all parts. Glue is applied to the triangular corners, and the machine is assembled.

    It should be noted that the wheels will not spin. This craft option is suitable for children school age, as it requires complex preparatory work. For kids preschool age You can offer a simpler purchased version of a typewriter. All they have to do is cut along the contour and glue the edges.

    Origami car

    This is the most difficult of the proposed options. How to make an origami machine out of paper with your own hands is shown in the diagram. First you need to have some experience in folding sheets. You need to start with a boat or an airplane, and then move on to a typewriter. The only requirement that must be observed when using the origami technique is to carefully and evenly bend the parts, running your finger along the edge of the fold on the table.

    The smoother the fold, the neater the final result looks. For the first time, the work must be performed under the guidance of an adult. These could be teachers in kindergarten, teachers primary school or parents. Subsequently, understanding how to use the schematic instructions, the child will be able to make a paper car with his own hands. After the craft is completely ready, you can paint it, adding details.

      THANK YOU so much for the very useful information in the article. Everything is presented very clearly. It feels like a lot of work has been done to analyze the operation of the eBay store

      • Thank you and other regular readers of my blog. Without you, I would not have been motivated enough to dedicate much time to maintaining this site. My brain is structured this way: I like to dig deep, systematize scattered data, try things that no one has done before or looked at from this angle. It’s a pity that our compatriots have no time for shopping on eBay because of the crisis in Russia. They buy from Aliexpress from China, since goods there are much cheaper (often at the expense of quality). But online auctions eBay, Amazon, ETSY will easily give the Chinese a head start in the range of branded items, vintage items, handmade items and various ethnic goods.

          What is valuable in your articles is your personal attitude and analysis of the topic. Don't give up this blog, I come here often. There should be a lot of us like that. Email me I recently received an email with an offer that they would teach me how to trade on Amazon and eBay. And I remembered your detailed articles about these trades. area I re-read everything again and concluded that the courses are a scam. I haven't bought anything on eBay yet. I am not from Russia, but from Kazakhstan (Almaty). But we also don’t need any extra expenses yet. I wish you good luck and stay safe in Asia.

    • It’s also nice that eBay’s attempts to Russify the interface for users from Russia and the CIS countries have begun to bear fruit. After all, the overwhelming majority of citizens of the countries of the former USSR do not have strong knowledge of foreign languages. No more than 5% of the population speak English. There are more among young people. Therefore, at least the interface is in Russian - this is a big help for online shopping on this trading platform. eBay did not follow the path of its Chinese counterpart Aliexpress, where a machine (very clumsy and incomprehensible, sometimes causing laughter) translation of product descriptions is performed. I hope that at a more advanced stage of development of artificial intelligence, high-quality machine translation from any language to any in a matter of seconds will become a reality. So far we have this (the profile of one of the sellers on eBay with a Russian interface, but an English description):
