General Instructions

This page tells you what you need to remember when doing any project on this website.

Rules
-Your cardboard should NEVER be creased unless I say it can.
- If you have a piece of cardboard too small, DO NOT GLUE A PIECE TO IT TO MAKE IT LARGER. Instead, scale down the whole project according to that piece of cardboard
- Cut carefully. If your cardboard gets creased due to careless cutting, it cannot be used.
- If you are doing a Level 5 project, make sure all your straight lines are PERFECTLY straight.

Levels
Levels categorize the projects into difficulty level. There are 6 levels, 1 for people who just happen to be bored and have cardboard, and 6 for people who collect or buy huge pieces of cardboard and are serious about cardboard engineering.
