DIY CONTEST- ELEMENT AIR : MAKING AN HELICOPTER

in DIYHub5 hours ago (edited)

Good day everyone and welcome back to my blog once again. I join this months contest yet again with an entry on the element air.

The element air is as important than any other element. Without the air we breathe in we would all be dead, the plants need the air to thrive, likewise the animals. So I believe the element air signifies life and longevity.

Today I would like to share with you all how I made this beautiful helicopter. Helicopters are one of the fastest and easy means of transportation in the world we live in today. So let's get started....

MATERIALS

  • Strong cardboard
  • Pencil
  • Marker
  • Gum

STEP ONE

Take a plain peice of cardboard and draw the outline of how you want your helicopter to look like.

STEP TWO

Carve it out using a scissors. After that, you make another one of it.

STEP NINE

Make a hole at the top of the Helicopter and pass a short broom through it. Then take two strips of the cardboard paper and make a hole at the center also.

Pass the broom through the two strips, put them in a cross position and pass the broom through the whole you made at the top of the helicopter. It should look like this at the end.
