Help on Kamiya's book

Post by Luis Eduardo »

Hola raza, soy yo Luis. I was wondering how to fold the forest cuckoo clock and the Bahamut, it seems too hard, any suggestions about paper or the folding method would be great.

Hola,

I haven't really tried folding Lang's Black Forest Cuckoo Clock yet.

For Bahamut, try to find the biggest sized paper you can use.

I've folded both already.

I used roughly a 1 yard x 1yard sized giftwrap sheet.
And it produced a model roughly 10 inches long.

At the onset, tt's going to be very tough to make accurate creases due to the size of the paper...but once you collapse the base, you'll be all set.

For the clock, I'm still too lazy to prepare the paper required for the fold. But dang.....i'd love to give that one a try. Perhaps during the christmas break.

Look here: http://www.origamiaustria.at/articles_c ... php?lang=2. I have bookmarked it for reference when I fold one. This article by Anna (origami_8) and Gerwin (Daydreamer) is a must for all planning to fold Lang's Black Forest Cuckoo Clock.

Hope this helps :D
