I think it's kinda funny how the flat box looks like noelle's head.

huge thanks to the inkscape team for making it _fun_ to lay out the cut paths for this project. And huge thanks to everyone who worked on inkscape-silhouette to make it work with knifebot <3

punch-out pyramid progress!
edit: and some assembled ones!

here's a fun trick: I arranged these shapes I want to cut such that, after tracing the edges with knifebot, I can slice the page with a regular straight line cutter, and be left with a 9x6" area suitable for a catalog envelope.
hey WAIT A MINUTE. knifebot can knife things besides stickers! I can use this to automate the hard part of the origami pyramids!
I redesigned the pattern so that the cuts are harder but the folds are easier, because knifebot is going to do the cutting for me!

STICKERS ARE GO!
So I don't forget next time: the knife offset seems to be about x+5, y+19, but just to make sure, next page I design will have a square alignment marker in the middle to do a 'test cut' before I cut the rest of the sheet.
