Summary

Create a bobble head figure out of household materials. Apply digital fabrication skills by scanning your head and generating a 3D model of you!

 

Safety note: This activity requires the use of scissors and other sharp objects; parental supervision is advised.

 

What You'll Need

The Instructions

Cut the Roll

Using scissors, cut one roll 3 inches in length. This is the "body". Cut another 2 inches in length. This is the "head".

Cut the Skewer

Cut one section of skewer +3" inches in length and another +2" inches in length.

Find or Create a Spring

Remove the spring from the click pen. If a click pen is not available, roll a 4-5 inch long wire (low gauge) around the skewer to create a spring.

Tape the Roll

Wrap the "body" roll in tape. Cover just the top similarly with tape.
