This is a molecular model made using scissors and a hole punch (which is handy to have but not essential). The advantage of paper molecular models is that they are inexpensive to make, but cutting out the parts can be time-consuming. This paper craft addresses that issue and aims to reduce the time spent cutting parts from paper. Furthermore, by using an interlocking mechanism to connect atoms and bonding parts, glue and tape are no longer necessary.

This is a simple molecular model that you can make by cutting out the parts with scissors and inserting them into the slits. While it isn’t suitable for discussions on stereochemistry, I think it serves as a great way to introduce young children to the concept of molecules.

This is a tool for learning about ion combinations.

You can see the faces of the unit cell of a hexagonal close-packed structure. All you need is a pair of scissors.

This is a paper craft that lets you observe a face-centered cubic lattice using a ball model. All you need is a pair of scissors. We offer two versions: one with metallic colors and one with ionic crystal colors.

This is a paper craft that lets you observe a spherical model of a body-centered cubic lattice. All you need is a pair of scissors. We offer two versions: one with metallic colors and one with ionic crystal colors.

You can see the faces of the unit cell of a hexagonal close-packed structure. All you need is a pair of scissors.

You can see the faces of the unit cell in a face-centered cubic lattice. All you need is a pair of scissors.

You can see the faces of the unit cell in a body-centered cubic lattice. All you need is a pair of scissors. If you make two of these, you’ll have a unit cell.
