Biplane Help

Post by S8on95 »

I'm working on this: http://dev.origami.com/images_pdf/biplane.pdf

I'm good at origami, but new to reading these american diagrams. Please help me on steps 26 cause my paper looks nothing like step 27 after I try step 26. Please help!!!

At step 26 you have to fold a rabbit-ear at the front. You also have to repeat steps 23, 24, 25 and 26 on the back side of the model.

I think the question was not for help with the first 15 steps of this biplane model, but rather if there is a biplane model that has a maximum of 15 steps in total.

I think it would be rather hard to get a biplane with only 15 steps.
There is a two-piece model by Yoshihide Momotani in his Origami Vehicles book though, the first piece has 15 steps and the second piece has 18 steps.
So long and keep folding ^_^

I made that biplane from water-bomb-base, it looks like soviet aircraft JAK 23 from 50s, but with four wings... :lol: I will post picture elsewhere as soon as possible.
