Hello my friends how are you today? This is @caringmanasseh your friend with a piece on Handcraft on the contest titled: New DIY contest week 30 begins// DIY//LETS SEE WHAT YOU CAN CREATE. I appreciate @mesola and the Steam Kids and Patents community for organising this contest.

Edited in GriGridArt

Today I constructed a car with a carton which will suit the kids in the community. Therefore, I shall be presenting the step-by-step process of constructing this car.

Materials Used For Construction

Carton
Emborse card
Old sleepers
Cutter
Marker
Top bond/Super glue/Evostic gum
Pencil
Binding iron

Step 1
I cut my carton into 4 rectangular shapes of the same measurement About 30cm by 10cm. On one of the shapes I draw the side view of a car and after the drawing, I cut out the shape. I repeated the same in another rectangular shape to have two cut-out side views of the car.

Step 2

I used one of the rectangular shapes to serve as the under-bottom of the car. On it, I map out the position of the four tyres and cut them out

Step 3
I put my top bond at the edges of the side view of the car and joined it with the under.

Step 4
I cut 3 short cartons of 10 cm each. I put gum on it and used it to brace the two sides of the car

Step 5
The remaining rectangular shapes are used to seal the top of the car

Step 6
I used my black marker to form the wheel screen and door screen of the car.

Step 7
I cut small pieces of red embossed paper to form the light of the car. I also cut a small carton and placed it between the two lights to beautify the car. I cut a small white paper and used it to serve as the plate number of the car.

Step 8
I cut sleepers into four circles to represent the tyres of the car and used sandpaper to smooth them. I also cut two irons to hold the tires side by side.
