That is one fancy piece of folding!
So where are the directions to do this at home;)?
Ahh...and only sixty steps!
I have GOT to try that.
Ack, now why did you have to go and post that?? :D Now I'll have to try to make it. I lived in Japan for a few years, and used to do alot of origami. I'm pretty good at following just the diagrams, because I have many origami books written in Japanese only, and have trouble reading them. So I got really good at interpreting the drawings and arrows!Quote:

Holy Crap. This seems almost impossible! I may have to try this one with a perfectly proportioned piece of plain paper first. With the print on the bill, it's really hard to see the creases..... I shall not be discouraged.....Quote:

Fortunately, no one in the shipping department cares about Origami. :D Of course, I'm supposed to be working on my Louis Garneau Spring 2009 order, not playing around making teeny tiny creases in one dollar bills. But hey, everyone needs a creative outlet.....Quote:

Wanna trade? ;)
Whoa! There're waaaaaay too many of these things! http://www.origami-resource-center.c...y-origami.html (scroll down)
LOL, I have a rather bright kid who taught himself to fold before he could read. He's now a rather advanced folder to put it mildly, studying the mathematics of origami design on the side at engineering school. Needless to say, we have boxes of origami everywhere.
