... continued from steps 1 to 12

13. Fold the left hand point back.
14. Crease
15. Mirror the same folds on the right panel.

16. Bend the left panel as shown.
17. Crease from back to front only 2/3 of the way.
Note: I have received a large number of requests for clarification of steps 17 and 18. For detailed instructions of steps 16, 17 and 18, go to detailed instructions. For additional help go to the movie to view an animated sequence of these folds. This is for users of browsers that support GIF animation such as Netscape Navigator 2.0b5 and later, or Internet Explorer. If you are using a web browser that does not support GIF animations, you will only see the first or last frame in the animation. You can also view a Shockwave Flash Animation if your browser is equipped with a Shockwave Flash plug-in.
18. Study photos 18 and 19 carefully. These folds are difficult to describe. Try to duplicate them as shown in the photos.

19. Mirror the folds on the right.
20. Turn the plane over and fold the point back and crease as shown.
21. Turn the plane over again. The result should be similar to the photo.

22. Crease wing as shown.
23. DANGER! - Moisten the crease with your tungue. Do this slowly and carefully or you could receive a painful paper cut on your tongue.
24. Carefully tear off strip of paper.
