Crane feet
Hi!
I'm trying to make a crane...
I want it with feet, but have some problem to find a good way to fold them.
The legs are like the 2 bottom part of a bird base, offcourse they have to be thinner...
Hope you did understand.
Any Idea?
thanks
bye

that was pretty easy
took me only 5 Minutes to fold.

maybe I will fold it again with better paper, when I'm at home (right now, I'm at work).
it's easy:
1. begin with a square
2. fold the 4 corners to the center line
3. now make a birdbase with the 4 courners inside
4. pull out the four courners. the model will look like this:

5. reverse fold 4 times

6. reverse fold 8 times

7. fold the wings up, while stretching the little corners

8. form the feet

9. finish the crane

to Brimstone: I know that crane, but it doesn't have the feet like I want...
if you look at the pictures I posted you can see how I want the feet, the problem is that it is a trouble to fold, and I had to made them go.
to Rock: what? sorry but my english isn't good enouth to understand.
thank you...

the stretched birdbase includes the collapse at the end (what is basically not a real rabbit ear, I think). the result is a birdbase with a stretched center... a stretched birdbase.
maybe somebody with manners can approve or disprove. oh, btw: those diagrams are from engel's "from angelfish to zen" and even Peter Engel calls it a "stretched birdbase".
