How to make a teddy bear?

We take the largest wheel and perform the following:

1. Apply to it a piece of plywood and measure such a section to cover the location of the disk of the tire.

2. Cut it with a grinder or a jigsaw.

3. Using self-tapping screws, fix the plywood to the tire. It is possible to conduct the silicone sealant around the circumference, so that the part is better kept.

4. We glue a piece of linoleum.

5. By the same principle we act with the back side of the bear and the wheel for its head, cutting out from the plywood is no longer just a circle, but a figure in the shape of a beast's face.

6. Now connect the head to the stomach, making holes in the tires and putting a tube in them.

Bear of tires: how to make a head and paws?

When the torso is ready, proceed to the rest of the details.

1. From pieces of strong rubber, you need to carefully cut the ears and fix them on the tire with self-tapping screws. If you have a pair of old wheels from the stroller or something else, then they are also quite suitable for the ears.

2. From the rubber cut out the legs and screw them to the largest tire. If you have another small extra tire, then these parts can be made from it. Their length will be 1/3 of the wheel.

3. As the lower paws, you can use a tire, divided into two halves. Then each of them should be attached to the belly of the beast. But a bear made of tires with its own hands can be made in a different way. To do this, simply put its body on two wheels. Then the pipe connecting the head to the trunk should be much lower than the bear's stomach so that it can be securely fixed on the ground.

Bear of tires: how to make the right color?

If it is more convenient for you to paint horizontal surfaces than vertical ones, then do not fix the animal on the ground. Put it on the table and get to work.

Tires should be painted in brown. The plywood is light brown. On the linoleum, you can draw a figure with a black stroke in the form of a shaggy tummy. Around her paint a dark brown color, and the belly itself is again light brown. The muzzle becomes dark, leaving a light contour. Next, draw eyes, a nose, a smiling mouth, etc. Do not forget to color your ears. Then paint the animal from the back side.

When everything is dry, you can give the beast a barrel of honey, a stick or flowers. If in the center of the lower paws (whole wheels) plant plants, the product will look much nicer. Now you know how to make a bear out of tires.
