Foldable Robot Toy

A sad little robot.[ :( ]

Connected by elastic cord, it can be freely posed into various shapes and folded into a cube.

Installation tutorial:

Please prepare the following four items in advance:

• 1.5mm drill bit (optional)
• 1mm diameter elastic cord
• A strong small clip
• Scissors

Elastic cord threading pattern is as shown:

The installation order is arbitrary, but it needs to be arranged as shown in the figure.

If you find it too difficult to thread the elastic cord, there might be two reasons:

• The tip of the elastic cord is frayed; it can pass smoothly after trimming with scissors.
• There are burrs inside the holes, which need to be trimmed with a drill bit.

Tips on how to thread the elastic cord:

• After threading through all parts, tie a knot at one end first.
• Pull the elastic cord to its maximum length, then use a small clip to hold the end; this makes knotting easier and ensures the elasticity is just right.

If you find the threading steps too troublesome and do not want to use scissors or a drill bit for trimming, I have also prepared a 2mm bore version, which will make threading very smooth.

However, the gaps will be very obvious, please choose as needed:

If you want a larger robot, you can directly adjust the scaling ratio, but you need to adjust the diameter of the elastic cord used according to the magnification.

Hope you have fun, and welcome any suggestions
