Reader Steve T. sent in some awesome papercraft from JAMSTEC, the Japanese Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology. You can print out a paper from a .pdf file. Don’t be dismayed by the japanese text everywhere, dotted lines tell you where to make the cuts. Below is the giant isopod (click on green rectangle under papercraft to download .pdf file), but there is also the dumbo octopus, vent crab and several fishes. Or, make a drilling ship, submersible or research buoy!
How cool–my kids love paper crafts. This will no doubt be added to their play with the crab shell they picked up off a beach.
holy scuttlebutt shrimpman! we need to make one of these – or an army!
