How to make a paper glass

A origami lesson sent by David Prat.

It will also be appropriate in this case to use a quite hard, water-resistant piece of paper.
In spite of its extraordinary simplicity, this paper glass constitutes an example of stability and strength in constructions only carried out by folding paper.

 

Fold a square sheet diagonally.


Fold it along the lines of dots . The first fold must be carried out so that the distance A-B is similar to B-C and C-D.

 


One side being folded, the other one will be superimposed on the first.


Fold the upper part on the folded wings.


Fold the second upper part down, from behind, trying to press the surfaces very well.

 


Press the ends lightly with your fingers and the glass will be ready to be used.
