What Are Poplocks?
Poplocks are a new way to connect paper to paper. It's glue-less, fast, and makes a high-friction fit! Make poseable paper toys, or sturdy structures.
Use Poplocks to connect two or more paper parts together -- just line up the holes, insert the poplock and *POP* it into place!
Poplocks are easy to assemble and just as simple to take apart. Make and break over and over again!
Who Made These?
This exciting paper technology was co-developed by Josh Buczynski and Alex Gwynne. We combined our brains and aimed for something new -- a system for making pose-able, connectable paper toys with parts that easily swap. After months of development, Poplocks are finally ready for people to play with!
How Do They Work?
Using Poplocks is really fun and easy. Take two pieces of paper, each with an equal-size hole. Line up these holes. Fold a poplock in half and insert the two tips into the hole. Allow it to expand and then press down on the middle. You'll feel a "pop" as it deforms into a new shape.
The Poplock pushes the two pieces of paper tightly together, creating lots of friction! It can also stay put, and won't pop out on it's own, unless a good amount of force is used to bend it out of place.
Combine the Poplock Wedge with the special Locking Flaps hole, and you will create a nigh-invincible connection. Seriously, you won't be able to get the connection apart with torsion or pulling forces unless you rip or crumple the parts. Even then, the Poplock will probably stay put... holding two mangled pieces of paper together!
