The Origami Forum

Yeah, very wierd name. Anyway, I need help on this model, step 41. I don't know how to do this without the horizontal section going out of position. By the way, I don't know how to post links, so you can find this model at origami.com, search for this in the complex section. And, if it's not too much to ask, can you tell me how to post links?

For help on posting links look here:

For the step 41 you will need to open the model quite a bit to perform it cleanly. Also since some new creases will be introduced you should precrease the long horizontal flap along the edge of this triangle thing. With this all the creases you need should be there and you just need to collapse it using these creases.

that helped out a lot! i finally finished this step. thank you. i am going to test this linking thing http://www.origami.com/ and hopefully it works.

i am stuck on another step of this model, step 49. it says to unwrap a single layer of paper, and i can't seem to get it right. (unwrapping layers is my worst quality.) can somebody help me out with this?

I performed this step a bit differently. After you have made steps 47 and 48 unfold again to 47. And then perform a symmetrical crimp along the two creases made. You will obtain exactly the same result that way, since as is said in the diagrams this step makes the model symmetric again.

your last post helped me out a lot! i tried that step like, ten times and i still couldn't get it. it only took me one try doing your way. THANKS!

hi im just wondering if you could give me any pointers on this model, im stuck on step 28, i just need a more detailed description of what to do as im finding the given instructions a bit vague at this point.

any help would be fantastic

thanks

its really hard to explain, ju, but you can ask chris if he could make a video of step 27-30

maarten_smit: avoid double-posting (moderators don't like it at all) by using the "edit" button ^^''! Just a friendly advice from a newbie, ok ?

But how will he ever become a senior member if he does that?

please, stop the sarcasm!

i know i was wrong by posting the "just getting my 50 posts" but just stop it ok?

Calm down, he's just kidding =]!
