Quick Return Origami Boat
Quick Return Origami Boat
A #PaperAnimation #Origami Project
A new project for you to download and make. The quick return origami boat is actually two projects in one. The first half of the project is an Essential Mechanism quick return. Turn the crank handle to make the vertical rod at the top of the box move slowly forward then return quickly back. The second half of the project is the origami boat that completes the model as a paper animation kit.
The rocking upright has a slot in it running top to bottom. Turn the crank handle and the crank pin in the slot rocks the upright back and forth. The result is this quick return movement where the upright moves back slowly then returns forward quickly. Perhaps a good mechanism for your own woodpecker model or a character hammering a nail.
Also included within the download are full instructions to make a classic origami boat. Add the boat and the cut out waves to make this charming paper animation.
The project comes as a downloadable pdf with fully illustrated step-by-step instructions as well as printable parts ready to be printed onto coloured card to make your own colourful model.
