This is an enlarged picture of the inside connecting part.

I used a 17.5×17.5cm paper.
I left about 2mm+2mm=4mm for the length of the connecting part.

This is an enlarged picture of the outside connecting part.

Cut the paper until a half of width.

Make sure the direction of each crane

Make the bottom four cranes so that the circled parts are changed to wings.

You can make this model even if you fold the top crane so that the top crane face in either direction.


After making sure the direction of each crane, make the model – Horai.
