Slotted Bee and Mud Dauber Wasp

Continuing the Halloween theme with a Bee and a Mud Dauber Wasp:

Bee and Wasp
Bee and Wasp

The little wasp has 0.5 mm slots perfectly suited for very light cardboard. It’s missing a few small pieces because at that scale they just don’t matter.

The chunky bee uses the familiar 1.4 mm chipboard:

Bee - right front
Bee – right front

A rear view to remind me where that long flat slab fits:

Bee - right rear
Bee – right rear

They have far too many pieces for mass production!
