Sculptural forms have never been this easy.

The Fold-Roller enables precise, controlled manipulation of cardboard. From simple linear folds to complex organic contours, discover your inner artist with this advanced cardboard construction tool.

How to use the Fold-Roller:
With firm pressure, glide the toothed wheel across the cardboard surface... then simply fold along the dashed line that you have created.
You can also use the Fold-Roller to help younger makers by tracing out the cutting lines that they can then follow with the Makedo Safe-Saw.

    Fun and Educational

    My three year old and I had a lot of fun building a car and a house with this kit. I still haven't quite figured out how to explain left loosey/righty tighty to someone who is unfamiliar with the letter L and which way clocks go, but he had fun practicing anyway. Should have bought more screws. I need more practice, but it seems difficult cutting anything but straight lines nicely.

    This is a great-multi purpose tool!

    I love that my littles could easily handle this tool! It is great for making holes and for screws!

    Students were able to work together and share ideas and tools!

    I bought it for my 3 year old granddaughter. We made a clubhouse & a corn hole game. She also enjoyed just screwing pieces of cardboard together.

- From picture framers
- At bicycle and appliance stores  
- At second-hand box suppliers
