Tutorial of how to apply letter stickers to split-flap display flaps consistently and perfectly aligned (the trick is to use static electricity!)
The rough steps are:
- create a jig to hold flaps in place (0:32)
- add bottom margin 0.1875" from the bottom (1:08)
- add alignment markers to help center letters horizontally, 1.0625" and 0.53125" from the sides (2:41)
- Cover a glass container with plastic cling wrap (3:45)
- Place sticker upside down (sticky side up) on cling wrap (4:26)
- Flip over container, align sticker with flaps, and press down (4:45)
- Cut sticker along flap edge (5:22)
This is part of the documentation of how you can build your own split-flap display - check out the open-source project here: github.com/sco...
If you're looking for pre-cut flaps to use in your split-flap display, I've had some professionally made, available in my Tindie store: www.tindie.com...
Those are way nicer than the hand-cut flaps seen in this video.
Instructions for cutting the flaps yourself (and everything else involved in building a split-flap display) are available in the project wiki: github.com/sco...
