Truck w/ Embellishments Extruder Disc
I wanted to create a truck design that I could swap out the embellishments on the back so I designed this truck specifically for that purpose. I will add different "embellishments" for the back as fancy strikes so check back every now and then to see what's new!
How to Assemble the Truck: TUTPROAL
PLEASE NOTE: When you add the truck to the cart it will NOT have any embellishments. It will just be the truck. If you wish to add an embellishment then you will need to add those separate. If you have any questions please ask and I'm happy to help!
There are TWO options for the truck:
- SIMPLE (57mm discs truck and 18mm or 23mm disc for the tire)
- COMPLEX (57mm Discs truck and 18mm or 23mm disc for the tire, and the window)
Embellishment OPTIONS:
- Lemon
- Sunflower
If you're new to soap extruders check out this video on how to use a soap (clay) extruder with soap dough. There are two different size extruders. The Makin brand which holds the 18mm size disc and the Fimo brand which works with the 23mm size discs. There are other/knock off brands to Makin. Note: I've tried a number and most work pretty well, though they sometimes have some minor issues. If you wanted to try one of them instead of Makin they should work just as well.
For best results use a soap dough that is not overly sticky or hard. You want a soft and malleable soap dough so that it easily extrudes through the soap extruder.
