I am not sure how large the paper should be, maybe play around with the size abit? The lines in the first step are not symmetric, I suspect step 2 tells you to crease the dotted line.

ok..I will have another try tonight....btw...how was your exam?

[e-mo]

hi...

can anyone help me with the tire? I dont seem to be able to connect the ends so it will stick as a circle..how is that mechanism?! would be nice if someone can post me some pictures..I tried the one from georgelkh...but it doesnt seem to work for me...

[chesslo]

Maybe you can take a photo?

[e-mo]

here you go...





hope it helps you to spot my mistake..if I did any..

btw...I realized from other pictures, that the tires only have 7 segments...but I do have 8 segments...which means that 1 segment will be overlapped with another one...if my assumption is correct...but then again...it wont fit somehow...

[chesslo]

Thats right, but you forgot to overlap one unit as in Step 4. That is why you get these gaps in your tire.

[e-mo]

I actually followed georgelkh's instruction...but it looks like, as if I really have to put the two endings together first...

so gonna try it again...thanks..
