Soma Cube Nets
Are your soma cubes taking too long to print in the 3D printer?
Try making them with these nets. Print them out, cut on the solid lines, and fold on the dotted lines. Use glue on the glue tabs to close the shape.
These may be a bit challenging.
Printable Rulers
Choose from 138 printable rulers, in PDF format, that you can download and print for free. Be sure to print at 100% or actual size so the rulers will stay true to size.
