I better hurry up on my movable character!

Today was my day, this was the day when we make our movable character. I started on my character but didn't finish it, but if I started on the work, that means I know what to actually do. These are the materials for making it:

• Piece of wood
• Copy of a character you want (examples: Nightwing, Superman, etc.)
• Transfer ink paper
• Wood tracing burner
• Paint tray
• Paint
• Primer spray paint
• Scroll saw
• Safety glasses
• Drill
• Nuts and bolts

Procedure

1. Take a piece of wood (20 cm x 15 cm) and make sure it isn't that thick so you can.
2. Print out a copy of a character you would like and make sure it has the right size.
3. Cut around the image of the character you chose.
4. Get a transfer ink paper and tape it on the piece of wood.
5. Do the same with the character, tape it on top of the transfer paper.
6. Start drawing the outline of the character.
7. Take just the transfer paper by the tape and you can see that it's probably exactly like the actual image.
8. Ask an adult to run a scroll saw and while waiting, mark around your character with a pencil on where you're going to cut.
9. Before cutting, get yourself safety glasses just to protect your eyes.
10. Move your character forward and press it down the table while cutting, but turn it so you can get the shape that you want for it.
11. Cut the arms, legs and even head if you want the head to move and drill holes at the edges, chin for the head, shoulder for the arms and the upper thigh for the legs.
12. Put the bolts through the holes and the nuts after.

And you've made it, your movable character!!!
