  1. Step 1

    Step 1

    make sure that your sheet of lego will roll around your wrist as a cuff, and the plastic shrinks when you heat it so check first! mine was a shee so i had to cut it up, i snapped it then cut it so it had rounded edges etc.

  2. Step 2

    Step 2

    i used a nail file, but sand it back a bit so that it's smooth.

  3. Step 3

    Step 3

    dont worry if where youve sanded/cut it is white, when you boil it this will go away. (bad pic but ...)

  4. Step 4

    Step 4

    boil the water and put in the lego sheet. it takes a while for it to soften up, just watch it and check it so that it doesnt melt, it took around 3 minutes for mine, but i had a bit of trouble.

  5. Step 5

    Step 5

    once you have bent it into the right shape for your wrist, put it in the cold water.

  6. Step 6

    Step 6

    get your lego man ready with his bits and pieces, mines a robin hood/merry men one :D
    glue gun him all together so you dont lose any pieces when youre wearing your cuff. i filled his torso with glue too.

  7. Step 7

    Step 7

    sadly, you cant interchange pieces onto your cuff, as the plastic shrinks in the hot water. so you have to glue your little guy right on there. i make mine lie down a bit, just to keep him from hooking onto stuff :D so there you go :D enjoy!

Man, my 5 year old is gonna LOVE this!

What about boiling the lego dude? Maybe that'll shrink 'im enough so you don't have to hot glue 'im? That stuff hurts
