How to assemble your model neatly
Scoring along the fold lines in advance with a dried
up pen or a ruler with slightly sharp corners will result
in a neater model.
*Be careful not to press too hard as the paper may tear.
Caution
Keep scissors and glue away from small children.
Be careful not to cut your fingers when using scissors.

Back
Fold in half along the fold lines,
glue together at the back and make a ring.
Adding curves to the part first will make it
easier to form a ring.
After gluing parts M and N together back to back,
attach the ring you have made.
Follow the same process to assemble G, H and I.
Assemble the axle
Add curves by pressing and rolling it
against the corner of a table,
with the printed side face up.
Fold the edge to make a triangular prism,
and roll the piece up to form a stick
(about 4mm wide).
Wind part E around and glue it down.
Glue down the end after rolling.
Cut three, equally-spaced slots in both
ends of part D, up to the red valley fold line,
and bend them back.
*The fine strips of paper are thick and hard
so be careful of paper cuts.
Glue
Attach part L, enveloping
it around the parts you cut
and bent back.
Attach the other side too.
Attach part P to both ends.
Follow the same process to
assemble the other axle.

How to play
Pull the car backwards along the ground, gently pushing down on the front wheels.
Point the car in the direction you want it to run, let it go and watch it take off!
Be careful not to wind the band too tightly as it may snap or come untied.
Play with it on a flat surface such as a table or the floor (wooden floorboards work better than carpet).
Glue
If your car doesn't run well, check the following points to repair it.
Are the axles or tires stuck against the body? Are the wheels or tires bent?
Has the band lost its elasticity? Is the band wound up too tightly?
Has the band come loose from the tire? Is the band tangled up around the axle?
Have a contest to see who can get
their bus closest to the bus stop.
