Tinfoil Instructables Robot (etched)



I made this Instructable for the Instructables Robot contest. It's quick, easy and fun to make.
Supplies

For this craft, you'll need:
- a magazine
- tinfoil
- a printed image of the robot
- a pen
- scissors
Tinfoil

First- place a sheet of tin foil about 8x10 (it doesnt have to be perfect), and lay it on the magazine, shiny side down.
Image

Now take your Intructables Robot image and lay it face down on the foil.
Trace

Trace the faint outline of the robot. Apply lots of pressure so the image is pressed through to the foil.
Tracing Again (optional)


Remove the image. The instructables robot should be pressed into the foil. Trace inside the the creases for sharper lines.
Cutting


Cut out your foil image.
Finish!

When you're finished, there is a variety of things you can do with your creation! Hang it on your fridge, or your wall, paint it, show it to someone who might care.. You name it!!
