Three-dimensional Geometry of Fantastic Int

You've never seen a three-dimensional representation of an int before! Let's make this super cool and mysterious object together!

All you need to do is print, cut, and glue the pattern I've created.

But in this post, I'm also going to show you how I make the project, so enjoy.

You don't need much - just a printer, a sheet of thick paper, scissors and awl, and paper glue.

I also needed an extra pencil and eraser, but you don't.

First, decide what word you want to create. Actually, int is from an instructable 😉 But it also means integer, so I thought it was cool and decided to go with that.

We start by creating a flat shape that makes the letters into squares.

Combine the flat shapes into three-dimensional shapes.

First, draw the three-dimensional shape in one direction to define the shape, then draw the shape from the right side, and then the shape from the bottom.

After drawing three directions, you'll have all the shapes of the three-dimensional shape.

Simply draw in the contrast and finish it off.

I look at a three-dimensional picture of a shape and draw the planar figure. There isn't much to this process as you are just 'looking' at a three dimensional picture and turning it into two dimensions, no other skills are required.

One tip for drawing an planar figure is to plan the order of assembly. This is because it's easier to assemble more complex shapes first.

Now that I've drawn the planar figure, I'm going to draw the bonding points for assembly.

find the surfaces that touch each other and create a place for the glue to go.

This is just a matter of looking at the three-dimensional shape and finding the spots and drawing them.

There is an assembly sequence, so think about where the glue points should be to make it easier to assemble, and make the spoints.

And now I have a pattern!

Print the pattern in color.

Cut out along the lines.

Fold along all lines, reversing where valley folds are marked.

Follow the assembly sequence.

Refer to the three-dimensional shape illustration and build to that shape.

Use an awl to help with hard-to-reach areas!

Are you done assembling?

Once you're done assembling, compare it to the blueprint to make sure it's perfect.

I drew this picture, so this step is my favorite!

Congratulations, you have a one-of-a-kind sculpture in your hands!

If you have any further questions or feedback, feel free to ask.

And if there's a word you want, write it in the comments. I'll make it for you.

Finally, I created a YouTube channel, and you know it's not easy to create something and share it on the Internet. I would be very happy if you support me by subscribing.🙏
