Everyone knows that making a model clock is very easy. However, making it within a short time is important. So, I have explained here to make a clock with a stryofoam plate in a short time.
Remember: Proper guidance of parents is required while using sharp objectives and tools.
Items Required:
- Styrofoam (Thermocol)Plate
- Push Pin
- Colorful number stickers (Available at Stationery shop)
- One Cool-drink straw
- Cellophane tape
- Scissors for cutting straws
- Pencil, eraser and ruler for marking
- Water Colors/Glitter glue to design the clock (optional)
Procedure:
- Take the styrofoam (thermocol) plate, mark the center point on back side by drawing one horizontal and vertical lines.
- Mark the plate with pencil to stick the numbers of the clock. This is very important to maintain the equal distance between the numbers of the clock.
- Stick the numbers as shown in the image
- Fold the straw to the center and cut it straw in to two parts
- Take one piece of straw and cut it again in to two parts to make short hand-needle.
- Insert the pin into the straws as shown in the image
- Bend the pin carefully and tape it properly
- Now you can make some designs as shown in image or you can apply your creativity to make it more attractive.
- Your model clock is ready
- But hold it with care!, It can be damaged due to its light weight.
