The Origami Forum

Hi all -

I received the book "Origami from Angelfish to Zen" recently, and was trying to fold the Discus Fish. I'm having a SUPER tough time figuring out step 4/5 and how it happens.

I'm at step 4's picture and try to perform "In a single motion, refold the four side flaps and mountain-fold the upper flaps to the centerpoint. Tuck the loose paper inside."

The picture in step 5 shows a picture I can't seem to recreate for the life of me. I can't figure this out. SUPER frustrated right now - can someone help me out? Thanks a lot!!!

Step 4 is just a reverse fold. Step 5 shows the reverse fold in motion

Kind you not, you just solved my frustrations. Thank you so much.

E: I didn't realize this was showing the intermediate step. I'll try and remember that n,n+1 for the steps means intermediate.
