From file to finished page
- Choose the paper size loaded in your printer and open the matching PDF.
- Print at actual size (100%) on the matching paper. Measure the 50 mm reference line on a physical trial; a screen ruler is not a print check.
- Cut out the body and handle. Cut each interior slit only between its endpoints, leaving the 12 mm top and bottom rails intact.
- Curve the body so its two short edges meet. Glue the 10 mm shaded seam behind the opposite edge, leaving a nominal 160 mm circumference.
- Curve the handle and attach its 15 mm end tabs inside the upper rail on opposite sides. Let all joins dry.
- Stand or hang only as a lightweight paper decoration. Do not place a candle, hot bulb or other heat source inside.
- Check the joints and support before use. No flammability, electrical or load-bearing certification is implied.
Printing and use notes
Make a scrap-paper trial before using special material or producing a batch.
Digital geometry does not establish physical assembly, durable joins, material fit or compatibility with a particular product.
