Cardboard Robot Hand: This is a fun craft to make. You can even pick light items up with this hand. This is a slightly difficult item to make because the string has to be the perfect length. I hope that you try this out for yourself!
Trace a hand onto cardboard and cut it out. 2. Cut straws into 1-inch pieces (or 1/2 inch if you have a small hand!). 3. Using the tape, attach the straw pieces to the hand (see top image). 4. Crease the cardboard in between the straws – these will simulate your joints (see red lines on top image). 5.
They’ll make amazing fingers for your giant ‘robotic’ cardboard hand. This video tutorial from Zygote Brown Designs shares each step of how to make one, from cutting joints in the tubes, to attaching the strings, to gluing it all together.
