can u tell me how to do #'s 59-60 i cant figure it out

[TogrutaJedi]

I once had problems with that one too. It's hard to describe but easy in practice. The hinges will appear as if (but it's not what you do) two outside reverse folds were made. There's also some expanding of the layers in there that follow the outlines of the other folds, but what I described will still give springy action.

Hello,

Can you tell me or make a video of how to do the steps 15-16-17.

PLEASE!!!!

[TogrutaJedi]

Well, I can't make you a video, but I can try to describe.

15: makes more sense is you mountain fold the model in half and think it is as if you're doing two bird base type double inside reverse folds.

16: The folding up of the central area is a bit like a sink fold on a tip of a flap.

17: Finish collapsing 16.

I hope that helps.

no you r never makeing a tut 4 this gun

[TogrutaJedi]

It's simply too long and difficult to make a video for. You can find the diagrams in Origami in Action, as stated in the description.

[mrorigamiartist]

@TogrutaJedi ok??? O.o

[mrorigamiartist]

ok i well try it crip means like what i forgot

[TogrutaJedi]

OK, you make a crimp fold on pre-existing creases (before step 30). If you do it right, he resulting flap should resemble a part of a blintzed bird base.

omg i did it thank you so mush know i am stuck on step 30 reverse-fold in and out on the creasses you just made huuuuuu

[TogrutaJedi]

Please use properly spelled English.

To find out about where you were stuck, I simply looked a few steps past 21 and looked for a harder step. On step 27, you spread sink the shown corner. To learn how to spread sink, look on page 16 in the same book.
