Flag Press & Lance Pennon Stencil

I’ve always had trouble making paper flags look even vaguely realistic. Here is my solution. a 3D printed press that puts realistic waves and bends in your paper flags. Easy to use you just print your paper flag, cut it out, fold in half, apply glue, wrap around pole and place between the two press pieces with pole outside and clamp with a spring clamp or clothes pin. When glue is dry remove clamp and you have a waving flag. you can use different sides of the press to produce different waves. File includes four different sizes and the file can be resized on your slicer before printing for more effects.

As a bonus I also included the stencil I made to make 28mm swallow tail lance pennons. For two color pennons just print colored stripes on a piece of paper and center the stencil over the colored stripes and cut out with a sharp knife.
