To make: print (or copy) this and the following page back to back on a single sheet of paper or light card.
As a check on alignment the positions of the two M’s should match (to within 2 mm. will do).
Cut around the marked outer rectangle.
Score along the two remaining lines. Crease and fold along these lines.
The dashed line should be a ‘hill fold’, that is the line is on the outside of the fold.
The plain lines should be a ‘valley fold’, that is the line is on the inside of the fold.
The whole thing, stood upright, and looked down should resemble a Z.
