Help with Won Park - Dollar Pig

Post by JHR »

Hi all. I am using the diagrams for the Dollar Pig in Won Park's, Extreme Origami book and I'm stuck on Step 20, Page 39. It says to rearrange the internal layers, but I just don't get it. My paper is ragged now that it has been folded and re-folded so much. :roll:

If someone could help me out please, I would really appreciate it.

Am having the same problem. The project can be completed without changing the folds but the result is imperfect and unsatisfing. A few pictures or better yet a video of this fold would be great, but some advice from someone who has folded successfully would be great!

Hi Stechnics - I've still not mastered this step, but if I ever do I'll post the 'how to' It's good to know I'm not alone with this one :)

free the inner layer from where it is trapped by the outer layer, and shift it to the middle.

Aghh - I still don't get it and my paper is beginning to rip! :D The model at Step 19 is ok. It says then to open the layers and in step 20 to focus on the outer edges. Step 21 shows the model looking as it does in Step 19, so am I correct in thinking that none of the section to the right of the crimp - and none of the crimp fold is involved in Step 20?

Ooh no I think I get you! It's the inner "crimped" layer? I have continued to fold after moving that and the model seems ok and not too bulky. Thank you bethnor !
