Make a gift bow from a magazine page. In gift wrap emergencies when you've got the present but need some wrapping, here's an idea for turning a magazine page into a bow.

Make a gift bow from a magazine page

There may be better ways to stick this thing together, but I used what I had on hand: staples and adhesive glue dots. Double stick tape or brads should work, too. Cut a magazine page lengthwise into 9 strips, 3/4" wide. Leave 3 of the strips full length. Cut one inch off 3 of the strips. Concept map. An Electricity Concept Map, an example of a concept map A concept map or conceptual diagram is a diagram that depicts suggested relationships between concepts.[1] It is a graphical tool that designers, engineers, technical writers, and others use to organize and structure knowledge.

Concept map

A concept map typically represents ideas and information as boxes or circles, which it connects with labeled arrows in a downward-branching hierarchical structure. The relationship between concepts can be articulated in linking phrases such as causes, requires, or contributes to.[2] Overview[edit] A concept map is a way of representing relationships between ideas, images, or words in the same way that a sentence diagram represents the grammar of a sentence, a road map represents the locations of highways and towns, and a circuit diagram represents the workings of an electrical appliance. Concept maps were developed to enhance meaningful learning in the sciences. Differences from other visualizations[edit]

There are many downloadable software products on the market designed for this special form of printing; some free and some for a medium to high price. By and large these products serve one main purpose; i.e. to interlace pictures to be viewed through lenticular sheets. This article tries to demystify the underlying working of interlacing software. Mounting A Lenticular Image. Step 1: Purchase a good quality double-sided optically clear, pressure-sensitive adhesive.

Make sure the product uses a silicone release liner because paper release liners leave a bad adhesive pattern that is easily detectable in the final mounted print.

Choosing the Right Lenticular Sheet for an Inkjet Printer. By CG Sheng Co-founder of ViCGI.com Introduction In the IT stone age (only about 25 years ago), lenticular printing was done mostly in dark room at the film level.

Now, with the lowering of prices in computing CPU power, DRAM, graphics software, and printing peripherals, lenticular printing can actually be done at home or in your office. If your interest in lenticular printing is not at the mass production scale, then spending some fun time on Photoshop will let you create an impressive lenticular print. Since the release of our article 3D Lenticular Printing Interlacing Algorithm Illustrated Using Photoshop, we have received many emails asking the question where lenticular sheets can be purchased. Before buying your lenticular sheets, it is always a good idea to know about the specifications. How to Make a terrarium. Wardian Case Terrarium H Potter. About H Potter | Our Blog Loading...

Parts Selection: When we came up with the idea for the Solder : Time, one of our big concerns was battery life.

SolderTime

We knew that we would need a RTC and some type of micro-controller. After experimenting with a bunch of different RTCs we decided to go with the Dallas Semiconductors DS1337+. This RTC clock runs at over a range of voltages which included our required voltage of 3v. It has extremely low current when in standby mode and uses I2C to communicate with the master micro-controller. For the micro-controller we chose the PIC16F631. Battery Life: In order to maximize battery life, we also used a couple of tricks.

Seven Segment Display: The LEDs: One of the objectives when designing the Solder : Time was to make sure that all of the segments of the digits had equal brightness.
