Six-fold snowflake patterns / LETTER

A good fit for your idea?

Letter and A4 preserve the component dimensions. Choose the sheet you will print, not a different object size.

Materials and construction

Plain 100 to 140 gsm paper for a first dimensional trial; approximately 160 to 220 gsm card only after confirming the folds. Use a ruler, suitable scissors, a blunt scoring tool and a small amount of paper adhesive. An adult should handle internal cuts, holes and small fasteners.

Before making a batch

Measure the 50 mm reference and two named component dimensions.

Make a complete empty trial and document fold direction, joining order, collision, stability and any fragile features.

Repeat the trial using your chosen paper. Check that every join holds and each moving part works freely before decorating.

Orientation
Portrait

Three connected, sixfold outlines with 67 mm radius; one 140 mm folding practice square.

From file to finished page

  1. Use the open sixfold pattern as the exact cut map. Remove inner windows with adult help, then cut its outside edge.
  2. The separate square is a folding practice study: identify center and the three 60-degree axes, then fold alternate radial sectors together.
  3. Do not blindly cut the full open outline through a folded stack; its inner windows were drawn for open-sheet cutting.
  4. Unfold gently and flatten beneath clean dry paper. Check that the narrow connections remain attached.
Printing and use notes

Drawing dimensions describe flat paper surfaces, not verified internal capacity, load strength, fit or material compatibility.

No mailing, food-contact, archival, toy-safety, protective-wear or cutting-machine certification is supplied.

Make a plain-paper trial first; paper thickness and fold accuracy can change the fit.
