I used my mat, ruler and rotary cutter to cut strips...first I cut about a 1/4" off the outside fold...
next, cut 3 1/2" strips and unfold them...
This little gadget is from Burpees...
Next, take a long strip and roll it around the pot maker...
Then fold the bottom 1 1/2" of paper under and twist the bottom of the pot maker to form the bottom of the pot...it's that easy.
Tada...a pot. The good thing about starting seeds this way is you just dig a hole, place the potted plant in the hole and cover it up...there's no trying to get the plant out of a plastic container.

Hi, yes the idea is great however I've found a better one: it is called next generation paper pot maker and it is much cheaper. Plus you can add soil without damaging the pot you just made.
