Need help folding dollar koi

I'm looking to fold Won Park's dollar koi but I simply can not follow the diagrams that he provided - actual images would be more helpful, does somebody know where I can find better diagrams.


Thanks

The only diagrams that I know are the ones at the money folders group, and I´m sure they are the same that you have.

Diagrams are very good, but some people forgets to zoom on it. Trust me, it can be zoomed a lot and is much helpful... and even if that does not help you, then take a look into this:

<embed src="http://www.metacafe.com/fplayer/921090/ ... ar_koi.swf" width="400" height="345" wmode="transparent" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"> </embed>

Is not the complete process of folding... but may help...

I folded two of these some months ago, but as I´m spanish, I don´t have dollars in hand, so I used the remaining rectangle after cutting square from an A4 sheet to fold it... but I think that it will be better using real dollars because dollar´s paper should be harder than normal copy one. Maybe somebody can help me to find a non-dollar-but-good paper :P


Good luck!! :D

which part exactly are you having problems with? There's really only one set of diagrams but if you can be more specific i might be able to help and send along some pictures to you of the step you are stuck on.

The only place to get them (I believe) is to be a member of the Yahoo group Money Folders Unite. They aren't supposed to leave the group.

The diagrams are free to anyone who joins the group. All you have to do is make a yahoo account and then do a group search and add yourself. It's the whole reason i made myself a yahoo account. It's a great community with some good hard to find money folds since all the moneygami guru's are members. And yes the diagrams are not to be circulated outside the group but i highly encourage everyone to join! I love all the people they are so nice :D plus there's the added bonus of getting to look at pics of Won Parks newest models as soon as he finishes them 8)

Just join the group and search through the files. It shouldn't be that hard to find. And while you're there, take a look at some of the other offerings.

Well, I may be wrong, but... maybe the link they gave to you is the one to the koi diagrams...

Once again, DIAGRAMS FOR THE KOI ARE IN THE MONEY FOLDERS GROUP... and... the only thing that you have to do is JOIN THE GROUP. I did it some months ago for the same reason: get the koi diagrams.

There are some more files in the group's folder besides the koi. Some others designs from Won Park and the rest of creators on it.

Morever, they look for people who want to diagram some of the models, so some of you migth be interested... And I think that Won Park and the others are very kind and generous sharing their models with everybody.
