A Thanksgiving Slice Form Sphere That Rotates with a Gear

Thanksgiving Slice Form Sphere That Rotates with a Gear

This Thanksgiving Slice Form Sphere with a Gear that Rotates is a companion piece to the Zig-Zag Thanksgiving card from the previous posting. https://papercraftetc.blogspot.com/2020/10/a-zig-zag-first-thanksgiving-card.html I think it would make a beautiful centerpiece for your Thanksgiving table as it is a great conversation piece.

This card depicts a scene from the First Thanksgiving.  An Indian boy is giving a Pilgrim girl some wampum.  A Pilgrim boy is sharing a wishbone with an Indian girl.  The dog is looking out into the distance at a wild turkey near their home by a pond.  The Mayflower ship is in the background. 

Here is a video of the Thanksgiving Slice Form Sphere Rotating

 It has the same gear mechanism as the Birthday Slice Form sphere and it rotates in the same manner.  https://papercraftetc.blogspot.com/2020/10/a-birthday-slice-form-sphere-that.html

To make this slice form, follow the directions from the Birthday Slice Form sphere as it is the same construction.

I used 65 lb cardstock to make this card. The beige metallic paper is Neenah brand Champagne Pearl 65 lb. card stock from Office Depot.

My kitty likes the slice form Thanksgiving scene too!

I recommend reading this fascinating history of Thanksgiving.  "Little known facts about Thanksgiving and Lincoln's Proclamation." https://archive.org/stream/littleknownfacts00warr?ref=ol#mode/2up
