Frank,

You have to give this simple mind a little more.

Nice job Frank.  Can you explain how you do the pivot point in the middle?  Also, what is the actual size of this pendant?

Billy, in the movie "The Illusionist", the main character creates a locket that appears as a simple cartouche, but when rotated along the diagonal line, it becomes a heart.  In the movie, the front of the heart then slides open revealing a picture inside.  Frank found a pattern online for the locket, but  it would be extremely difficult to make.  A lot more than just scrolling involved, and VERY small.  I've attempted Frank's simpler version of it, but it's not easy getting things lined up.

Hello everyone, this is the easiest way I've found to make the heart.
But I do not waste much wood.
I start from Step 4 and at that time I introduce the screw / nail in half.
Yet their development is complicated, time consuming and I do not think it's a good idea to mass produce them.
There on sale a more functional and open completely, as in the film, but his system is round and flat with magnets.
You can find them on google images.
Yet its price is high.
Hope you like the link, thanks for your feedback.

Hola a todo mundo, ?sta es la forma m?s sencilla que he encontrado para hacer el coraz?n.
Pero yo no desperdicio tanta madera.
Empiezo desde el paso4 y en ?se momento introduzco el tornillo/clavo a la mitad.
A?n as? est? complicada su elaboraci?n, me lleva mucho tiempo y no creo que sea buena idea producirlos en serie.
Hay a la venta unos m?s funcionales y se abren completamente, como en la pel?cula, pero su sistema es con imanes redondos y planos.
Pueden encontrarlos en im?genes google.
A?n as? su precio es alto.
Espero que les guste el enlace, gracias por sus comentarios.
