regarding making scallop fences…here’s one method outlined by tom hull…click on this link…
http://www.cardboardchristmas.com/papateds/fencemend.html
here’s the method i used…(because i already had the tools)…
first, stamp cut the basic shape...a single hammer blow will usually cut one thickness of cardboard...
then radius the top of the scallops with a craft knife…
a couple of coats of primer and finish will hide any imperfections in your cuts…
it’s not a perfect solution…but it works…
regarding making fence post…i used the same rolled paper technique as tom…
but use a bamboo skewer in place of a toothpick and a strips cut from mailing envelope paper…
my very best regards…howard
