The Origami Forum

Hello,

I have been trying to fold Benoit Zenker's beautiful Pelican model published in the origami olympiad ebook but I keep getting stuck on step 58. I just don't see what to do to make it look like step 59. I would really appreciate any help for this step if possible please. I would be really grateful for any advice. Thanks in advance!

I'd love to help...but from where can this e-book be obtained?

There is no way to legally obtain this ebook-- it was distributed *only* to participants in the challenge, and intended to be used for the purposes of the challenge only.

Step 58 is basically an unsink. The diagram is not very clear, but the easiest way to do this is to open the model a bit and unfold the pleat along the edge, then reclose with the pleat still unfolded at that point. THe result should look like step 59.
