DIY Wooden Squid Game Business Invitation Card

Squid Game! What a TV Show... :)

I was invited to the Game 😀, to make this Instructable. In this Instructable I will show you how did I made a wooden Squid Game Business Invitation Card.

From time to time I like to make a project for fun and practicing with new materials and tools, so after I finished watching this TV Show full season in 4 days, the Idea came up to make this project and also a short Squid Game scene of my own 😀😀 (on the 60 sec video)

In case you missed - Last time I made an Instructable for Money Heist TV Show.

This project can be made as a prop for a Squid Game costume.

What do you think of it? let me know in the comments.

In case you didn't see the TV show, people are being invited to participate in the "Squid Game", with a business card.

1. On the front side of the card, there are 3 shapes - Circle, Triangle, Square (from left to right). I made these shapes on my Wooden card. I made each shape with a height of about 3 cm.
2. On the back side of the card, originally there is a phone number. I made something different in my card's back side, which is more relevant to my YouTube Channel :)

For the circle, I used a plastic board, which I removed from an old Led Panel lamp.

I used the dremel Circle Cutter accessory to cut a small circle from the board. (I put another wood board over the plastic board while cutting, since the plastic was very thin).

After sanding the circle a bit, I painted it with a gold spray color.

For the triangle , I used a metal piece.

I used my angle grinder to cut the shape and later, sanded it a bit.

For the square , I used a wood piece.

I used my Pull saw to cut it and sanded it using a sanding paper.

For the card board itself, I used a piece of birch tree board.

The board height was 8cm so I marked a line on 15.5 cm to have a width according to the proportion of the card.

For the triangle, I used Chisels to make a socket.

I actually not so experienced with chisels, but I just bought a cheap chisel set lately so It was a good time to practice with it :)

I first used the 1inch chisel with a mallet, to mark the 3 lines of the triangle. Later I used the smaller chisels to clean the wood inside the triangle.

Finally, I placed the triangle inside for a temporary test. The socket was a big bigger than the metal triangle I made, but not that bad. :)

For the circle socket, I used a 3cm Forstner bit in my drill driver.

Making the circular socket was faster than the triangle, for sure... :)

For the squared socket, I first started with the biggest chisel and a mallet, as I did for the triangle.

Later I used my Dremel with the Plunge Router Attachment and a router bit, to make the socket. The wood piece I used for the square was thicker than the other materials of the triangle and circle, so using the dremel was easier for it.

Finally, I used the chisel for the edges of the square, for more accurate results than using the dremel.

I used my sliding miter saw to cut the card with the shapes, from the rest of the birch board.

I used a hot glue gun for each shape in it's socket.

Usually I'm using a stronger glue, for this case it saw good enough.

The front side of the card is ready!

For the back side of the card, I made a transfer of printed photo.

On the original card in the TV Show, there is a phone number which you call in order to participate in the Game.

I made something different in my card's back side, which is more relevant to my YouTube Channel :)
