- Aircart Base -


Cut out the base, and score (cut one layer only) the folds. Cut holes for the wheels. Fold the sides to make triangular beams. The flaps should meet in the center and cover the front wheel hole. Mark the hole on the flaps and cut out these semicircles. The glue sticks quickly, so check the positioning and mark the final location before you glue .

Mark the position of the flaps before glueing. The angles on the sides must be 60 degrees or the aircart sides won't fit right.
