The hands come from a famous picture called "GOATSE". If you don't know
what it is, go and search on Google, but i'd advise against it. Really.
Seriously. I AM NOT KIDDING!
Now you can have the special Valentines version:
Anyway. Here is how to make one of these things for real.
You
will need:
-
A colour printer, some ink, and some paper. This card would be better.
-
Some scissors, or a small knife. A machette will be too big and
unwieldy.
-
Some glue. I'd suggest a Pritt-stick. Evostick is no good for this. I
used Blu-Tack, as it was all I could find at 1AM.
Step #1 Download
and print out these files:
Step #2 Cut out each one, giving you 3 recangles of card. For
Fig 1 and Fig 3, cut out the dark grey areas. For Fig
2, cut along the vertical line, and around the gap between the
hands.
Example using the Christmas version
Step #3 Fold Fig 1 along the two black lines.
Step #4 Get your pritstick, and glue Henry Kelly (Fig 3) to
the back of the inside of Fig 1
Step #5 Trim to bottom tab of Fig 1 to fit, and glue it to
the front part, making an envelope with open sides. Mr. Kelly should
now be staring through the hole.
Step #6 Carefully slide the 2 halves of Fig 2 into the sides
of the envelope, so that the hands close over Kelly's face. Breathe a
sigh of relief!
Step #7 ?????
Step #8 Profit!!! When you
pull the tabs at the side (carefully marked "Pull Here"), the grinning
face of Henry Kelly stares back at you (rather that a scarily gaping
arse).
Advanced students may replace the face with something
more fitting.
