In summer, I released a big update to my DIY Book Lamp project, and judging by my analytics, nobody noticed πŸ˜… So I’d love a little boost here on Mastodon. Since my DIY Book Lamp is a perfect gift, I’ve reduced the price of my template and instructions by 50%. I know many people just want to use this for fun (not for teaching), so this is your opportunity.

That is an interesting game idea. A bit to much plastic for my taste. Maybe I should make a paper circuit version πŸ€”

Hey! Here is a short breakdown of my newest DIY project for kids (and anyone into deep sea creatures and bioluminescenceπŸ™‚)
It is an easy and quick paper circuit project, and as always, I do provide workshop materials for schools and libraries. No tools are required. Check out my website for a longer video.

The template for my anglerfish is now online: https://www.voltpaperscissors.com/rgb-jellyfish

This is not a fun project, though πŸ˜… (not kidding, it’s very tedious to put together).

But it still is a great dreamcatcher.

My new video is online! A short introduction on how to create light-up jellyfish.
I do provide materials for teachers and parents who want to use this for education: https://youtu.be/bs5QjT5yZNU

3 Easy Circuits for Kids

while editing my website to introduce my new paper circuit project (Illuminated Jellyfish) I came across this older project of mine. It still amazes me. Sadly I do not have the pepakura designer files anymore but I will share the print templates soon.

I've got two Halloween themed paper circuit projects in store that you can make with a group of kids. πŸŽƒπŸ”¦
Both are Minecraft inspired: A light-up pixel art pumpkin and a variation of the Minecraft Torch.
My downloads include templates, material list and video instructions.

More info and links to my store:

Thanks for boosting. If you have any questions drop me a line. πŸ‘»

Here is my first popup card prototype. I used an illustration from a friend of mine. She just released a boardgame about moths and I was hyped to make this card. She is not on Mastodon but you can check out her work here: https://www.maxinemetzger.de/

I will add a paper circuit and some LEDs under the wings later. πŸ’‘

I found a new way to make the bellows of my DIY Book Lamp using paper bags. Simply glue them together and you are done.
This is a quick and easy solution. No folding is required. It is not as clean but better suited for kids. With this solution this paper circuit project would make a great 2 hour workshop for kids age 10 and older I guess.

@VoltPaperScissors I started from your video instructions and modified to match what I had on hand... the connections to the LEDs are quite unstable using copper tape, and tracing paper is terribly fragile (I ended up reinforcing every single fold with tape), and in sum I regret everything, but it was great fun as an exercise!! When it stops working it'll be a fun nonfunctional decoration -- I'm really pleased with it. Thanks again for sharing this project. #paperCircuit #papercraft
