The document provides instructions for folding a paper martian bouncing spider model. It involves multiple steps of folding paper at creases and angles to form the body and legs of the spider. The finished model can bounce when tapped on a surface.

1. fold and unfold paper diagonaly in half both ways then
blintz fold in all the corner to the center.
3. Fold the raw edge up to the top crease, then
unfold and reapeat on other 3 sides. Turn the model over.
2. Blintz fold again the center
Then unfold completely and turn the model over.
4. Fold the raw edge up to the first crease,
then unfold. Repeat on other 3 sides.
5. Make a really large rabbits ear, then unfold and
repeat on the other thre corners.
7. Collapse the model in to a long armed
pinwheel.
6. This is all of the folds after step 5, from here
we go to the crease pattern to fold this into a long armed windmill.
8. The model should have collapsed into
a large pinwheel type shape. Note the small square in the center of the model remains flat through out the collapse. In the next diagram you will see only 1 arm shown.
9. Notice creases on the arm of the model,
the next step is to use these creses to fold each arm into 3 preliminary base each one opposite to the one before.
10. Note that the bottom most preliminary base
is four layers, put two layers to each side, the other folds will be only 1 layer each.
11. Three layers of preliminary
bases on on top the other.
12. This is an enlarged view of the
leg we just folded. Now we fold half of a bird base.
13. Fold another half of a bird base,
but in the opposite direction.
15. Finished view of one leg.
14. Fold the final half
of a bird base in opposite direction of the previous one.
16. Repeat steps 9
through 15 on all legs. Odd note here if you feel the need to improve your spiders bounce some careful wet folding at the end, or glue if you want to hold the square part of his body together, or just use stiff paper like I do and it should work just fine! Perry
18. Each leg will pull out like this.
17. Now to finish your martian bouncing
spider, grab the tip of each leg one at a time and gently pull in out till the middle of the leg becomes tube like.
Finished!!!! now tap the x and
watch him bounce! With practice you can even dribble your spider.
