How Do You Make A Mini Skateboard From Cardboard?
• Obtain some thick cardboard such as the cardboard from a packing box. Alternately you can use cereal box cardboard if you layer it with glue. • Cut a rectangle from the cardboard approximately 5 inches long and 1 inch wide. • Round the ends of the rectangle by drawing a circle on both ends and cutting around the outer edge of the circle. • Curve up the rounded edges to create the skateboard shape. • Cover the entire cardboard skateboard with clear tape to add strength and keep the ends curved up. • Optionally cover the top surface with dark sandpaper for a realistic effect. • Cut two paper clips using wire cutters to create axles for the wheels. Create small wheels using beads or pieces of cardboard.
