First time I tried this I got so mad and ripped it up, I'm gonna go back into the battle zone, wish me luck lol

Tries to do it twice.

*Stares at paper*
*Heavy breathing*

I hated it at the diamond part!
Anyone agree?
I even got so frustrated that I break down

[khaxxx]

I am so confused starting from the diamond creases part

[ashleykim]

HIM: This is not that hard!
Me: INTERNAL SCREAMING
Him: You can teach it to your friends!
Me: I CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER HALF OF THIS STUFF

Instructions unclear, my paper is in the oven and I am taped to the ceiling.

After many failed attempts, I finally made it and it turned out surprisingly well!!

Btw I found it easier to use a ruler to fold along on the diamond step. Hope this helps 😁

Me laughing maniacally: ha ha ha heh heh
My dad: is he okay?
My mom: oh yes he’s just trying to do an impossible flexagon where one wrong fold messes the whole thing up
My dad: ohhh

did anyone else at the end get confused and crumple the paper up and throw it across the room

[idontknowhowtoread]

What I did after I finished...

1) made one ofc
2) tricked my friend into thinking it was a puzzle and That It had a secret prize inside..
3) watched her suffer >:)

[aryantajne]

The minute I finished this the teacher threw it in the bin

[davidroche]

Jeez ya lost me at “get a peice of paper”

[kizeu]

For y'all saying the crumpling part was difficult(for the diamond)- there's a way 'around' it
1. Draw the diamond lines with a pencil(NOT FREEHAND SJDHKEJ)
2. Get a ruler
3. Put the ruler on the line
4. Lift up the paper and trace the ruler outline(from the other side)(paper has top side n side on the desk so the side facing down) with the sharp tip(don't actually draw, just trace the outline- b/c you can feel it, yes? So you can crease it from the pressure)

that way ya folds are nice and precise and are already there so you don't have to 'refold' or crumple anything or whatever

Hopefully it helps! I made the thing on my first go so it works lmao

[kittycamiori]

I made one and brought it to school. All of my friends were absolutely mesmerized by it.
