Robotic Hand

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

·         Tape

·         Scissors

·         Cardboard paper or cardstock paper

·         2 standard drinking straws

·         Big straw

·         Yarn or twine

Step 2: Draw Your Robotic Hand

1.   Trace your hand on a cardboard or cardstock paper.

2.   Cut the traced hand out (cutting it a little bigger than the actual tracing).

Step 3: Creating Joints

1.   Mark your finger joints on the cutout.

2.   Draw straight or curved line across it.

Step 4: Creating Your Robotic Hand

1.   Fold the fingers at the lines.

2.   Cut smaller straws to size (leave a little gap between the lines to facilitate in threading the yarn).

3.   Tape straw pieces to the hand.

4.   Thread yarn through the straw pieces. Each finger will have a length of yarn of its own.

5.   Thread all five pieces of yarn through the bigger straw.
