We’re gearing up for the last Easel Live event of 2016. Tomorrow (Friday 12/9) at 12 pm CST on Easel Live, we’ll be showing some interlocking techniques you can use to make your 2D objects come to life in 3D!
There’s a lot of expanded PVC dust on our machines as we frantically make last-minute holiday gifts and decor. We love this material because it’s cheap, easy to carve, and comes in a variety of colors perfect for the season.
I made a sled for our growing collection of holiday office decorations. It’s my first time doing any kind of interlocking joint, and I’m pretty proud!
@SamAlaimo made these adorable tree candlesticks out of expanded PVC. We had some fun painting these—a fun project for kids!—and adding a little festive cheer to the office. Dogbone joints are the secret to these designs, and we’ll cover them in Easel Live. Grab the project to make your own!
I made a simple candle holder for tealights or small pillar candles, both the top and the base feature interlocking parts. If anyone is curious about how I made the 4-joint votive top in Easel, I can do a quick tutorial showing the method that I used.
