Amateur craftsman

Amateur craftsman, how does it sound like, for outsiders it may be little bit crazy, but for those who are really an amateur craftsman it is just insulting. In principle the amateur craftsmen can be described as the people with a second job, a second business. They are absolutely professional in their crafting and do crafting to the higher accuracy and occasionally don´t give importance to the time and take their own sweat as the source of ethnic happiness. Amateur craftsmen are gifted by the destiny, they are the true professionals, to be better addressed, as the people in their field of interest better than any employed professional. The reason is amateur craftsmen love their profession, their salary is often not more than their expenses which just states that they are able to pursue their crafting.

Indeed there is not much needed for the implementation of Pepakura but proper crafting material is at least helpful…

Amateur crafting with sharp knifes

…if the amateur craftsman does not restrict himself on scissors but also uses a sharp knife (knives with segment blade are always more convenient), then amateur crafting will be much more joyful. Now the amateur craftsmen will add: Then also a cutting surface is needed, and one which doesn’t require a carefully handling of the amateur craftsman and which is also, if necessary, able to fix the craft work model. While we are at it: For amateur crafting a flat surface is very helpful. It goes without saying that the amateur craftsman cannot let his children alone there. The same case is with the paste. The amateur craftsman should try to find a technique to apply the paste precisely on complicated points (for example by using a prick). In addition to scissors and a metal ruler, one needs a working printer; it goes without saying that the amateur craftsman can’t portray the Pepakura sheets on his own.
