Manufacturing process
- On a thick cardboard draw the workpiece. The size will depend on your preferences. I recommend making the height of the product about 20 cm. The blank is an isosceles triangle, drawn with a ruler in two copies.
- In the middle of each blank it is necessary to draw a straight line exactly to the middle of the product. Cut two triangles - they should be identical. In the center of each billet with scissors, cut the intended strip exactly to the middle: one billet should be cut from the bottom, the other - from the top.
- Connect the workpieces by inserting one part into another. Check the product for stability by placing it on a flat surface. If it does not stand exactly - it is necessary to carefully trim the bottom.
- Next, take the thread of your favorite color and wrap the blank in a circle, starting from the bottom. For reliability, you can use PVA glue, securing the beginning and end of the thread. A little time and the simplest tree is ready.
