Description
Flip-it! is a 3d printed flipbook that continually flips through pages by turning a lever. This kind of device also goes by the names Retroscope, Giphoscope, Flipbookit, and Mutoscope. The animation comes from the game "Cuphead".
You will need...
The wheels have two sets of holes. The inner set of holes is for a 24 frame animation, and the outer set is for a 30 frame animation. poke toothpicks through the set of holes that best fits your animation. Then print all of your frames on standard paper, cut them out, and fold them in half. Then with the toothpick inside the fold of your frame, glue it together.
