Test Build new revision of printed instructions
Printing on Tissue
It’s possible to print on the tissue paper using an ink jet printer. You can then make any design you want for your airplanes using a graphics program on a computer.
Glue tissue to an ordinary piece of paper using a glue stick. Print on it, then remove the tissue from the paper. If you only glue the border area, it shoudl be easy to separate.
Separate it right away before the glue sets as well.
Squirrels for Beer Program
One tactic that has help me make refinements to the building instructions is to host various building sessions where I can observe people.
The beer methodology has worked. As you can see here I have recruited two of my unsuspecting friends into building Squirrels by enticing them with a beer.
The young lady was actually booked and we were sitting at the pub near the window when the gentlemen was walking buy. I invited him for a drink and presto! Instant testing subject! You can tell how much fun this session was. 🙂
Making Squirrels at Atomic
We made some Squirrels as usual. This time Derrek made a few modifications. It was his second time at Squirrel-O-Rama and he was ready to try his own experiments. He made a Squirrel that was slightly bigger. If flew very nice! In fact it flew away.
