Creating this project from scratch involved creating a simplified structure of the Skid-Steer using paper that can be folded into components that fit together into the finished model. Many roughs were developed and judged on scale, function and ease of building without glue or fasteners. The artwork was later illustrated over the blueprint and made available in PDF format. A supplementary illustration of the model in isometric parts, showing the folds required was developed for the instructions.
Several thousand downloads later, Finning received compliments on providing something fun for kids, and kids-at-heart, to enjoy building together. Future illustrations are being developed for other models and attachment upgrades.
