Introduction: MindCraft (Create With Your Mind, Craft With Your Hands)

Have you ever wanted to touch your Minecraft creation?

Have you ever wanted to build your Minecraft creation with your hands instead of clicking a mouse?

Now you can with MINDCRAFT, like the title said "Create With Your Mind, Craft With Your Hands"

In this instructable, I will teach you how to turn bored kids into creative and imaginative ones with just a few decks of cards.

This is a very easy project to do, kids and parents can enjoy it alike and together. It can provide endless fun anywhere and anytime with a cost of only a few bucks.

MindCraft is very much like MIneCraft, you use your imagination to craft amazing things. In MineCraft, once you created it, it stayed in the computer but with MindCraft, you can build, touch, and modify it till your heart's desire.

Step 1: Making a "Simple Face"

Let's make one of the most basic element of our MindCraft world, a "simple face".

A simple face", is a simply a flat square made from 2 cards. It is sturdy enough to make most objects but may be too flimsy if you wish to make taller structures or you want to make something that can support weight.

You can connect more faces to a simple face with "connectors".

A "connector" is simply a straight or bent card (at a desired angle) which connects 2 cards together.

Step 2: Making a "Support Face"

A "support face" is made of 3 cards which makes it much stronger than a "simple face"

You can use the "support face" to make taller, or sturdier structures to support weight.

Step 3: The Cube

Now that you have made a face, we will use 6 faces and 8 connectors to make a simple cube and from there on, you can build anything your heart's desire.

You can stack a bunch of cubes to make a pyramid as the ancient Mayan or Egyptian.

You can make Steve or Alex from MIneCraft.

You can make a ginger bread house with a little chimney, with a functional door and windows.

The possibilities are really endless.

Step 4: More MindCraft Creations

Thank you for reading my Instructable, I hope that you've enjoyed it as much as I have creating it.

If you made something cool, a car, a pickup truck, a robot or whatever please share.

Look forward to seeing your creations.

Thanks!
