Instructions for making Origami Airplane:
After seeing what paper-folding art origami is, today we will learn how to make origami paper planes, so fasten your seat belts and follow the steps.
- Since you are making it for the first time, use a rough paper. To differentiate easily between the front and back sides of the paper, I am using one side color paper. You can do the same for your reference.
- Cut a sheet with dimensions 7cm breadth and 20cm length. If you have different dimensions, make sure that the ratio of length and breadth is roughly 3:1.
- Hold one corner of the paper and bring it to a point where the breadth side of the paper is exactly aligned with the length. Fold the paper to make a crease.
- Repeat this step for the other 3 corners.
- Now, we have a crossed crease at both ends.( Observe that this area of crossed crease covers a square)
- Turn the paper to the other side and align the paper vertically
- Fold the upper crossed crease area exactly into half such that the fold is outwards and make a crease. Notice that this crease will also pass through the meeting point of the crease made in step 3.
- Unfold the paper and turn to the other side.
- Pick up both the ends of the crease made in step 7 and bring them together.
- Touch this fold to the rest of the paper and press it, so that it stays that way.
- We now have a triangle at the top.
- Fold the entire paper into half along its length. Make a slight crease in the whole length.
- Unfold the paper and align it vertically such that the triangle is at the top end.
- Pick up right corner flap of paper (not both the layers) and align the side( above the corner) exactly with the crease made in step 12.
- Repeat step 14 for the left corner.
- Repeat steps 6,7,8,9 and 10 for the other end of the paper
- Turn the paper to the other side and align the paper vertically.
- Pick up the left edge of the hexagon and align it exactly with the crease in the centre(made in step 12)
- Make a crease only with the upper flaps. You can see that the flaps made on the other side are protruding.
- Pick up the right edge of the hexagon and align it exactly with the crease in the centre(made in step 12)
- Turn the paper upside down, such that the triangle comes at the bottom.
- Of the upper part, fold the right flap such that it is aligned with the crease in the centre.
- Repeat step 22 for the left.
- Turn the paper to the other side.
- Fold the other end of the paper upwards and let the triangular part slightly overlap the top portion.
- Insert the folded part into the top portion.
- The triangle which was at the lower end now makes the wings of the plane.
- Notice that the wings(the triangles protruding outside), are of 2 layers.
- Cut the 2 layers with a pair of scissors and fold the upper layer upwards.
- Now the body of the plane is ready. You can colour the lower end to give the effect of an exhaust or even open the folded part to show a parachute for the plane to land.
