Putting it blunt for you.

Stop being so arrogant and superior. Perhaps you don't mean it, but that's what it comes across as.

They did. you were just too lazy to try and figure some stuff out on your own. either that, or you tried to fold something way above your folding level
I would rather fail trying than fail without trying....

No problem, it was a fun project =)
If you're making a life size hat, you can fold the corner in step 19 higher and the crease in step 25 higher for a tighter fit

hi all,
hi wriggles,

i tried it, and here is my result:
Image

currently i am not very satisfied with my outcome...as I believe i did not do the collapsing the box correctly...

Some of the pictures, i wasnt so sure if i did it right:
e.g. pictture 5:
- did you mean the pink corner to the center ? or is it the smaller white corner to the center?

picture 14: I got that step, but the new line is not the center of the 2 pre-creased lines right?

Picture 15: is mountain-folded along the line made in picture 14 correct?

picture 30: that is a bit tricky somehow...

picture 33: is not locking the back so tight...maybe i did something wrong there..

I will see if i can fold it better than my first try :-)

and yes..i actually want to do a real-size hat...for kids to wear in summer...but looks like as if I have to use a pretty big paper...maybe gonna try with newspaper... :-P

thanks again..

The very end of the paper to the center.

That's right, ignore the 2 creases in between.
e-mo wrote:Picture 15: is mountain-folded along the line made in picture 14 correct?
Yeah, the edge of the rabbit ear should match up with the fold made in step 14.
e-mo wrote:picture 30: that is a bit tricky somehow...
The vertical and horizontal folds are all valley folds, the 4 diagonal folds are mountain folds. The 4 diagonals are new creases, the valley folds are already pre-creased. Fold through all layers.

The lock isn't perfect, but it should be holding the shape of the hat at least.

Good luck with the life size hat =) I haven't tried one yet but I'm sure newspaper will work. You can always tape/glue several sheets together if all else fails :wink:

I think it is fun for kids to wear :-)...just need to figure it out how large the paper should be....
20x20cm seems to be too little :-P

probably at least about 1.5mx1.5m....hm.....

Around 50 cm will be fine, I guess.

I am afraid now...as the current result is way too small with 20x20...so 50x50..would turn our about double size of the current hat...and this is still too small.

If you don't mind the wings and front being smaller, you can fold the hat part bigger and tuck less of the paper away

For maximum doofus potential =P
