Today, let’s build a machinery model, R2-1 wheel roller car papercraft by Sakai Company.
This wheel roller car is used to flatten land or roads. In countries like Japan you’ll often see this machinery being employed after the rubber roads are laid down to ensure a smooth surface.
Before the roads are flattened by the wheel roller, access is typically restricted and cars are blocked from driving on them.
Sakai Co. has actually created many excellent machinery car papercrafts. I had linked a few of their models on this site, but it seems those links are now dead because their website has been revamped and uses different URLs.
As for this papercraft, there are no instructions available. The guidance provided on their site is mostly left up to your interpretation, so you’ll need to figure it out for yourself.
