CUBES WOVEN ON THE SKEW

Other Experiments — Printing a Cube on Acetate Film

It is interesting to print cube nets on the acetate film but the printed side of the film is dull and easily damaged. It is therefore best to cut it out the net and fold so that the printed side is on the inside as shown below.

Figure 1 3,1 cube printed on film overlaid on net cutting lines (on paper)

Figure 2 3,1 net has been cut out. Printed side is uppermost. Red sticker identifies what will become the inside.

Figure 3 Net is turned over. Sticker visible through the film.

Figure 4 Fold up and stick sides together. This is now a 1,3 cube. Printing side (dull) now on inside with shiny side as outside.
