Good afternoon, I am a beginner/progressing folder and I have some questions I would like to ask the group. Robert Lang directed me here!
1). I’ve been attempting the King Tut model in Robert Lang’s Complete Book of Origami and have been having considerable problems with the sink fold step. I’ve used traditional origami paper and regular printer paper cut into a square. The directions are not clear in how the model should look afterward, and my paper gets very flimsy by the end of the step because I’ve been handling it so much. 2). For John Montroll’s Batarang in his Batman origami book, he calls for a spread-squash fold, and I have no idea how to accomplish that with the model given. 3). Do you have any strategies or techniques for folding in general to help make super accurate folds? For example, on kite folds, do you try to go halfway into the crease or do you end slightly before the crease so the two flaps do not overlap each other? Any suggestions, images, or videos of this that I could use for reference for these questions and issues would be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much for your time and support! Joshua
