Origami machine with your child's hands

Let's say you wondered how to make an origami machine. For this we need to take a square sheet of paper. The size and color of our square can be absolutely anything. Let's start with the addition of a square sheet diagonally. Straighten the bend made and perform the same fold diagonally from the other corner. Again, unbend and turn the square so that the folds from the produced folds are on top. Now add a square sheet in the form of a book and straighten it again. Again turn the sheet over and fold it again with a book, but on the other side. Straighten again. Thus, we have not yet made an origami machine, but its partial procurement.

Then we need to make a basic form, which is called a "double square". Fold the resulting square in half diagonally, bend the fold and bend the upper corner to the center of the fold. Again, straighten the fold. We bend the same upper corner, but already to the strip obtained earlier.
Now you need to turn the workpiece over and fold the uppermost line to the line below. As a result, our corner seems to "pop up".

Next, the entire folded figure must be fully expanded and folded along the third on top of the line. We need to insert the top corner inward. After adding the angle, you should push the corner up with your fingers. We will have a figure that resembles a volcano with a top.

Then we need to raise one layer from the bottom up. Turn over the workpiece and pick up one more layer. Turn over the page of our workpiece and pick up the remaining two corners upward, as described above. As a result, all four large angles must go up.

Now we need to pull one of the upper layers to the nearest corner and cover it from the top with the same angle. We will have three corners hidden inside the triangle. Turn over the workpiece and repeat the procedure of bending, but on the other side.

Before us is a triangle, under two corners of which hid three corners. We need to bend each side to the center. During folding, a small pocket is formed, from which only one, the far side, needs to be smoothed. Then we will do the same, but on the other hand. Completely turn the workpiece and on the other hand we will do everything the same with each of the two sides. A lot has been done, but this is not an origami machine. A figure resembling a penguin with wings protruding to the sides will appear, where the lower part of the trunk is represented by a small angle, and the top is a high and acute angle.

At the next stage it is important to remove acute angles, having received "penguinenka", but the upper part of the trunk ends with the collar of "dress coat". To do this, from one side open the top of the workpiece and remove the sharp corner, bending it to the lower small corner, return the side of the workpiece to its original position. Turn over the workpiece and do the same with the second sharp angle.

We lower the lower corners, the "legs of the penguin" to its "tailcoat" on each side of the workpiece and again we will straighten them. We take the finger in the formed "pocket" and put it in the form of a diamond. This procedure must be done with each "leg".

Now we need to remove the last two corners from the bottom of our workpiece. In order to make this easier, we will straighten out our model. Now the future origami machine is like a rocket. First, we will straighten two lateral sharp corners. To do this, turn the model over and straighten it, stretching, each of the corners on the sides. Now remove the two large angles inside the model. To make the fold more accurate and even on the sides, inside it is necessary to remove small corners. This will facilitate accurate bending inside large angles.

We turn over the model, which has taken shape of the machine, up the roof. And we see that our origami machine still stands on square wheels. We will give them a round shape. To do this, turn aside the sides, to which the wheels are attached, we will fold a thin strip on them and put everything back into place. We will do all the same with all four sides. Then bend the side corners, and the top and bottom corner on both sides need to be inserted inside.

We almost answered your question, how to make an origami machine. We pass to the manufacture of the hood. We will smooth out all the corners and bend them back. The lower corner must be raised upward, but not to the end. Then we fold a small strip upwards, lower the bent corner downwards and tilt it back.

Now you need to do the trunk. To do this, you need to bend the ribs of the triangle from the side, and lift the resulting angle upward and hide it inside. Align the folds with your fingers and enjoy the result. Somewhat harder origami modular. The machine made in this technique is made longer, but it can very well become an original man-made gift.
