#[ | [[File:VEVOR Electric Creasing Machine (Location).jpg|thumb|Last known location of the creasing machine]] | ||
[[File:Creasing machine setup for brochure.jpg|thumb|Example setup of creasing machine for brochure]] | |||
#Locate the paper creasing machine in Arts (see photo) | |||
#*[https://www.amazon.com/VEVOR-Electric-Creasing-Machine-Multi-function/dp/B06XWDQDBQ VEVOR Electric Creasing Machine 18 Inch 460mm] | |||
#*It's big and blue and likely near the printers | |||
#Open the lid and verify that the wheel is set to crease the page into 1/3 + 2/3 | |||
#*We currently only have one creasing wheel | |||
#*See photo for an example setup | |||
#Close lid, turn on machine, insert paper, and make the first crease | |||
#*'''Make sure the front faces up''' | |||
#*Creasing with the front facing down results in broken fibers at the crease line | |||
#*Support the paper on the sides as it feeds through to prevent the crease line from wandering | |||
#*(You get a feel for this after a few creases) | |||
#Rotate paper upside down, and crease again | |||
#*Keep the front facing up, just rotate it around the z-axis | |||
#Use a bone folder (or your nail lol) to fold the paper along the crease marks | |||
#*You may need to do a little finessing to make sure the inner flap is marginally smaller than the outer | |||
#*(You'll get a feel for this after a few creases, too) | |||
