to start, get out the pencil and sturdy stick. put them side-by-side. take out the rubber bands and wrap them around the back of the pencil and sturdy stick. OPTIONAL: Place glue as indicated in picture 3. tape won't work. now take the cardboard and fold it as indicated in picture 4. make sure the edges are touching. now use tape or glue to hold them together. finally, put the cardboard triangle (once it's dry) and put it in between the pencil and sturdy stick (picture 5). and you done! the next step is for how to use.

How to Use

just move the cardboard piece up and down to increase and decrease the size. place the sturdy stick on the surface you're using, and rotate it so the pencil makes a circle. YAY! YOU DID IT!
