FlisKits MMX Crayon Build Part 5, Crayon Wrap

Before gluing the wrap, pre-curl the paper. Set the paper in the heel of your hand and roll over it with a dowel.

The back of the wrap got a coat of clear glue stick.
The edge was set down on a pencil line down the body tube.

Continue rolling the wrap around the tube smoothing it out as you go.

The print on the ends didn't really match up. If it were drawn again I could probably get it closer.

The end seam will want to lift.
Put a bit of white glue on one side of your knife and slide it under the lifted edge. It takes very little glue to hold down the edge.
Roll over the edge with a clean dowel to set it down.
