How do you build a clay guitar model?

1

Form two balls of clay. Choose their size according to how big you want your finished car to be: a large ball will become the car itself, while the small ball (one third the size of the large) will be used to make all four wheels.

Step 2

Roll the large ball into an oblong shape like a sausage, as shown. This shape will become the body of the car.

Step 3

Flatten one side of the sausage shape by pressing it against your flat work space. This will become the underside of the car.

Step 4

Lay the sausage shape flat side down on your workspace. Form the hood of the car by pressing and flattening the front of the sausage with your finger, creating a ledge.

Step 5

Create the trunk of the car by flattening the other end in the same way. Make this ledge shorter than the one in the front.

Step 6

Finish the shape of the trunk by pinching the edge upward. Set this car shape aside.

Step 7

Divide the smaller ball of clay into four equal segments.

Step 8

Roll each segment into a ball.

Step 9

Make each wheel by flattening the four balls slightly between your thumb and forefinger. Try to make each wheel the same size and shape. Adjust the amounts of clay if need be.

Step 10

Press your finger into your car shape to create four grooves for wheels.

Step 11

Stick your wheel shapes into the grooves to complete your basic car shape. You can now customize this vehicle by using your sharp-tip tool to draw details (such as windows, headlights, and wheel spokes) as you like them.

How do you make a homemade bell?

A homemade bell can be constructed from just about any large or heavy diameter of iron pipe. It can be as simple as hanging a piece of pipe with strong string, fishing line, or chain. Its tone can be changed by cutting or hanging different lengths of pipe.

What are the things you can make from waste material?

If you look closely at any good model builder's work, you will not be able to guess the material from which it was made. This is a combination of well-fitting parts, precise cuts, and good finishing techniques. This said, I will say flat out that I am partial to cardboard as a building material. It is abundant, free, and as close as your nearest dumpster. Much of what theatrical model builders use is illustration board, which is like really thick cardstock. Sometimes you can get away with substituting corrugated board. There are many different kinds of cardboard, with variations in number of ply, durability, amount of glue, style of courrugation. Familiarize yourself with these to find the right kinds to fit your needs. Also, the magic of paper mache never ceases to do the trick. Recipe for the glue: mix cornstarch with cold water, pour into boiling water (one box will make about a large soup pot). Soak cardboard in water to separate the plys. Then rip up the material and saturate it in the glue. Voila.
