Tutorial DIY miniature 1/12 Paper Hinges (very strong!)

How to make a simple and strong hinges from paper

[@kristinagentry2290]

It really helps to write stuff in the description with the dimensions, products used etc. Then we all can easily repeat your awesome diy hinges!! Keep up the good work!

I'm not sure it needs to be that precise, though here's my guesses. From the "spiderwebs" and the glue gun, it looks like hot glue, and the transparency suggests the all purpose kind. The paper looks like cardstock, but might just be computer paper. Either should work fine though. The self-healing cutting board looks to be a 1cm grid, and measurements can be taken from there. The metal is presumably aluminum, but most metals can work that you can buy like this and scissors can cut. (Alluminum, tin, zinc, etc. Even lead or magnesium if you're feeling edgy) The piece of metal cut looks to be about 1cm, and the paper about a 1.5cm square, and both look cut without exact precision, other similar sizes should be fine, with the paper teeth being 1/3 width each. Toothpick is a toothpick.

@@rmt3589 Pretty sure any glue will work. The metal part will stay there as long as no one ever pulls on it, even with white glue. This is so simple and clever, why didn't I think of that! Maybe glue some little piece of paper under the hole to keep the metal part from falling off.

[@csk2616]

Thank you for the tips!

[@sandrakorpela1850]

Brilliant!!

[@Reddeb57x]

Wow, very cool!

[@CarloGojoCruzHalasan]

What kind of glue did you use, and what paper kind? Thank you very much! I mean, it looks like it's not just an ordinary paper. May I know how thick the paper is? In GSM?

[@honeyrunnyag3867]

Card stock most likely

[@gillsmith4165]

I would have thought card stock and regular superglue.?

[@lanicampbell6975]

Tacky craft glue and card stock by the look of it. I made these and they worked really well. Such a clever idea!

[@komalbhamani8657]

this was really helpful, thankyouu

[@shawnrobinson6283]

Brilliant! Thank you!!

Wow ! Very smart

[@forestrunner8922]

amazing!!!! funny even tho u dont speak so many interesting sound effects of...horse whinnying? rock tumbler etc..

[@AnneAndersonFoxiepaws]

Yes! I was thinking it was one of those tumbler things for jewellery making!

[@rychei5393]

That doesn't seem like normal paper or cardstock. It's grey on the back. Is this plastic?

[@markharvey573]

Brilliant idea.

[@novbabyy]

this is amazing!!!! thnk you

Beautiful. Except the background noise. 😅

[@ClulssCrs3310]

What is that on 1:44 ? Hard paper? Black on white paper?? I wish there was descriptions for this

[@TuyetQuach]

It’s a thick paper pad

[@honeyrunnyag3867]

SO AMAZING DUDE THIS IS AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[@erineclair3446]

this is amazing :O

[@vanessac7856]

Tried this after failing with metal hinges and those crazy small nails. My problem is that my finished hinges don't fit together as tightly as yours, any suggestions?

[@TuyetQuach]

Which part did u mean?

[@vanessac7856]

@@TuyetQuach I made them into the H shape, then glued them like you showed but when I put the 2 glued pieces together, there are big gaps between them and they don't look like 1 hinge.

[@TuyetQuach]

U may over cut them. I failed like 4-5 times to have it fits perfectly

[@vanessac7856]

@@TuyetQuach Thanks, I'll keep practicing.

[@criscavi19]

Great! thanks!

[@tammieallen5100]

What kind of paper are you using. Regular copy paper? Looks like more than that

[@TuyetQuach]

Hi, I'm not sure what it is called, it's a craft Paper pad 12in x 12in (48 sheets in one pad). I think any thick paper will works

[@honeyrunnyag3867]

Probably cardstock i'd say.

[@cpech2]

very cool TY :)

[@renaerickson4190]

Whats that noise in the back ground? Sounds, like a old motor! 😢

[@felicityjohnston9276]

Helpful video but what the hell is that noise in the background? It is extremely distracting.

[@kristinagentry2290]

Sounds like a wobbling fan... Or laundry machine in the djdyance... But I totally agree. I had to mute it because I was going crazy

[@honeyrunnyag3867]

I enjoyed it 😂😂😂
