This video demonstrates how to fold the origami model "Ground Beetle" that John Montroll designed. John kindly gave me permission to make this video accessible to you.

Diagrams for this model can be found in the book "Origami for the Connoisseur" by Kunikiko Kasahara and Toshie Takahama

  • i dont get 6:39 bird base part...

  • First do a squash fold on the big flap (6:57), but don't crease all the way through. Then push in the sides along the other mountain folds I marked (7:02). By refolding a small valley fold, you can flatten the corner that pops up to the top (7:06). Finally, push in the sides - there's valley folds there (7:09).

    Hope this helps.

  • sarah , it realy doesn't play , and I couldn't find this video on your website either ..... I can seriously cry !!! I love origami bugs and now I was half way making my own ... :(

  • Sometimes YouTube doesn't load videos - or rather just very very slowly. Unfortunately, the only solution I've found to this is try again after a couple of hours.
