DIY Cardboard Tool Ideas
1. Hammer
Cut two hammer-head shapes and glue them together. Attach to a rolled cardboard tube to form the handle. Paint it black and silver to look realistic.
2. Saw
Cut a long saw shape with zig-zag teeth at the edge. Layer two or three pieces for strength. Decorate with silver tape for blade effect and brown for handle.
3. Ruler
A straight strip of cardboard can be turned into a ruler. Mark the centimeters and inches using a real scale.
4. Blade / Cutter
Cut the blade shape, layer it for thickness, and wrap with silver foil or tape. Add a small cardboard handle.
5. Screwdriver
Roll cardboard tightly for the shaft and add a flat or plus head. Attach to a decorated handle.
