QtyPart
1Wood paints or acrylic paints

Also: sandpaper (grit 120 and 240), a utility knife or fine saw and, for joints, a rubber mallet.

Carving and finishing

  1. Clamp the workpiece flat on the spoilboard or secure it with double-sided tape, and set the origin as shown in the carving assistant.
  2. Engrave numbers and ticks, mill the slots, then cut out strip and figures.
  3. Free the parts at the holding tabs with a utility knife or fine saw and sand the tab remains flush.
  4. Before gluing, dry-fit everything. If a joint is too tight, increase the clearance by 0.05 mm and carve the part again; if it wobbles, reduce it.

Assembly and final touches

  1. Paint the figures and add the eyes. The figure stands with its tenon in a slot and hops from number to number for each sum.
  2. Sum 7 + 5: figure on the 7, hop five times to the right; going past 10 shows the step across ten.
