Well if you are going to do more than a couple of these then you probably don't want to do it by hand. I was considering trying to make my own dies, but then I found the Quickutz Silhouette for $99 shipped and that was completely worth it. (Found it at ohmycrafts.com, but they are out of stock now)

If you have a similar cutting machine that uses the Robo Master software then you can just grab the attached .gsd files.



If you have a laser cutter or other kind of cutting machine or just want to tweak the design then I'm also attaching the Inkscape .svg files. Inkscape has a lot of output options, so you should be able to get it in whatever format you need from there.



If you are cutting by hand then get out your scissors and hobby knife and figure out the method that is best for you. Here are a few approaches you might consider:

Print designs on sheets and cut along the lines one at a time.

Print it out once and make template pieces that you can either trace or use as a cutting guide.

Glue sections of paper together before cutting them with either of the two methods above



Note that I've purposely made the holes and axles 1/4" so they can be cut with a standard hole punch.



There are three different files

Insides = full sheet of the inside components

Outsides = full sheet of the outside components

Combined = 6 inside components and 4 outside components. Enough to make two cards if you are cutting the parts out individually.



Since Instructables now requires a Pro account to download files, I've uploaded them to my site so you can still download them for free. Download here
