My name is Chuck Felton and for most of my life I have been enjoying the wonderful hobby of building and flying model aircraft. Over 30 years ago, a fellow modeler named Bob Miller introduced me to the concept of using corrugated cardboard as a model building material. Back in the 1970's, Bob built 3 R/C cardboard models which appeared in R/C Modeler magazine as construction articles. I wrote those construction articles with Bob and inked the drawings. In the process, I became hooked on using cardboard for my own control-line designs. Since then I have built using cardboard exclusively for all my models. Over the years my cardboard designs have been published as construction articles in various magazines. Modelers often see one of my latest cardboard design articles and write me to ask if there are plans available for other cardboard designs as well. So I thought it might be time to put this info on the web where interested modelers can see the variety of cardboard designs which are available, both R/C and C/L. 

Cardboard does have some building limitations, but as you can see by my 60" wingspan Emeraude model to the right, it can produce good scale-like appearance. The models shown are simple in construction and inexpensive, as they use 1/8" corrugated cardboard as the primary building material. This reduces both building time and cost. The designs make use of cardboard's unique features in that it can be used in large sections and folded. For instance, the wing is built of 2 large pieces of cardboard with cardboard ribs and a single spar. The fuselage is mostly cardboard with little internal bracing required, leaving lots of room for equipment. The result is a low cost, fast building model that has good scale appearance and can still take plenty of punishment at the flying field. Try one of these designs or design your own. Either way, I believe you will find it to be great fun.

I've been thinking about building some models out of cardboard, and just wondering what cardboard is the best for modelling? I'm not making huge models, was looking for something that is quite still, does not fray or tear when cut, and is ok to paint on with acrylics (or do so with pva first). Can anyone give me some advice?

the thinnest plasticard you can get will serve you better than any quality of cardboard. No matter what kind of cardboard you chose, it is heavily affected by humidity. This will give you more problems than it's worth when painting and probably sagging and warping models in the long run. That being said I have used some stronger papers with a sealed, semiglossy surface which behaved much like plasticard, but still would warp over time. They came from straight from a printing plant that did high end art prints, so that's what this paper was used for.

I would agree with @Schwarz-Brot the fibrous nature of cardboard does not make it the easiest material to work with, let alone the longer term issues. Even in the last century (1980's actually) Dave Rowe suggests Plasticard or 9mm ply. Today we also have 5mm foamboard available, the main problem with this is getting a vertical cut, The only card I have seen recommended in modern books is Acid Free Base Board - a laminated card. Another issue with foamboard and AFBB is that they warp if you use water based paints directly only them.

Last two points. If you are new to card modelling I wold start with a pre-cut kit, such as those produced by Metcalffe to get used to card and suitable adhesives. I would also look out for good books on the subject. The aforementioned Dave Rowe being one author.

Sorry for the late reply, I thought I'd already replied. Could you recomend a thickness to work with for a sturdy model? I have a very thin sheet and quite a thick sheet and i don't think either would be great for making the model.

I would wholeheartedly agee about using thin plastic sheet rather than cardboard. I have problems with cutting thick sheet, anything over 1mm, as it is so difficult to cut through, plus blades tend to bend, mis-align and blunt quicker the deeper you have to cut. I do a lot of scratchbuilding but only use 0.5mm sheet, sometimes 0.75mm, and then laminate two or more cut pieces together to get the strength needed. Working with sheets as thin as that can also help to obtain finer details. The thinner the card also makes it easier to bend to get rounded shapes, such as mudguards and bumpers etc.

After 45 minutes of ripped cardboard, glue gunning and stress, I finally had the cardboard model finished. All of the pieces fit together just as I expected them too. However, I did notice that when I went to show it off, as soon as I sat the sculpture down, the head started to wobble. It became clear that the head was too fragile and needed some supports. I designed some head supports, and switched out the wobbly parts. I also added a support between the legs, which really helped the structure stand up.

Hey there.

I am new in Grasshopper world, I learnt basic parametric modelling in Grasshopper. And I am very curious to know about the laser cutting and modelling complex surface with cardboard. Is there is any plugin like (Autodesk slicer) in Rhino or Grasshopper environment which automatically generates closed curves and organised the curves for laser cutting.

Thanks

Best regards

The cardboard model is intended for young and old (from ten years and up) and is available in seven different language versions in the museum bookshop. The model is at 1:60 scale, and is made up of 16 cut-out cardboard sheets with a total of 60 parts. With the use of the instructions, you can complete the model in around an hour and a half, depending on your experience.

The model includes an instruction booklet, as well as background information on the time spent hiding in the Secret Annex, the people who found refuge there and the helpers (also available as free download in English, Dutch, German, Spanish, French, Italian and Portugese).

I was excited when Bernard Means of the Virtual Curation Lab posted 3D slice models of artifacts and fossils. The models reminded me of the topographic models we made in the Boy Scouts. We cut out and stacked cardboard pieces, replicating the elevation contours of a topographic map. A two dimensional image was transformed into 3D! Lock down means most of us are away from 3D scanners and printers, so the cardboard patterns are a fun way to make 3D models. Plus, I LOVE building stuff out of cardboard, often with my eight-year old son Leo. Leo and I have made a Corinthian helmet, the TARDIS and K-9 from Doctor Who, a wearable sea turtle carapace, a model of our house, and much more.

Initially I wanted to build the Virtual Curation Lab 3D slice model of a dire wolf skull. I downloaded the plans and watched the video loop showing a virtual assembly. Ultimately, I opted for the Megalonyx femur. I decided that it was a little simpler, and might make a better first build. Each set of plans includes numbered pieces with registration marks that indicate how all the pieces stack. I like Megalonyx too, since these giant ground sloths existed in my home state, and some Florida rivers occasionally reveal fossilized bones. Megalonyx existed across much of North America for over 10 million years, ultimately becoming extinct around 11,000 years ago!

When the cardboard was well bonded, I went to the garage to spray paint the model in a well-ventilated space. I used some leftover black spray paint to give a quick base coat. After the paint dried, I added some details with brown and tan acrylic paint. Minerals and tannins have heavily stained fossils from Florida rivers and quarries blackish-brown. Once I achieved the desired effect, I left the Megalonyx model to dry. My son produced a background drawing for display. ff782bc1db
