    Here's one for the Kidz! :D

    This design was a dxf I found online. The way the fold technique is used is what caught my eye.
    I tired this out of 1/4" fan fold and it did not work very well because of these bends. I ended up taping the inside and I wish I had taped the outside to. So that it would have created a tape style hinge when the bends are.
    I think this one will have to be made from EPP to work right
    Have fun!

    I think for fanfold it would work a lot better if we did the normal fold lines like 50% instead.
    Cool idea though.

    There is such a small area for the actual be that it makes it easy to snap, that's why I was thinking maybe EPP?
