7. Fold and unfold two top triangles, much as you did in step 3, where the
dashed valley folds are shown. Just as in step 3,
the inner edges of the new triangles should line up with the center line of the
plane you are making. That is to say, don't try to fold right up against the tip you folded up
in step 5, since that tip is supposed to be a bit lower.
|
8. Now bisect the new folds you made, using the previous creases you just made
in step 7 as a guide. Fold and then unfold along the two dashed lines, leaving
you back where you started, having created two new upper creases.
|
|
9. Now you can fold the two large right angle triangles down again, repeating
the first part of step 7. For the moment, ignore the two new creases you just
created in step 8.
|
10. Fold along the two dotted-and-dashed "mountain folds", tucking
the lower triangles well underneath, snugly locking them in place.
(These two triangles of paper go under the tip you folded up in step 5.)
The next diagram, Diagram 11, actually shows this being done. You've almost
made a paper airplane.
