Dollar Origami F-18: Take 2 (Full Video)

Fold an F18 fighter jet from a single dollar bill. Expanded tutorial.

[@babakhanoushii]

This is so, so much harder than it looks. I'm over here sweating over these tiny ass folds. But it's so rewarding.

[@davidxu6877]

Then get a bigger paper times the length and width of the money by 2 onto a blank paper

[@hannahbaldwin7248]

I don't know what everyone else is talking about, this worked great for me! The instructions weren't that clear, but he repeated them several times, and he even drew lines on the model to show us where to fold. Maybe it was easier for him because he was using a bigger, paper dollar, but it was still good. Thanks for this video!

[@Jenna7241986]

You're a really good instructor - everything was so clear and you took your time explaining this complex folding project -thank you!

[@spidermike98]

everybody shut up, damn, this guy was nice enough to us this cool stuff to show off ourselves, not to argue. Grow up.

[@dipensor]

I have this saved in one of my playlist for over 8 years now

[@OldManEagan]

Love this origami model, it's a real eye catcher and conversation starter. Directions were clear, and not rushed, which is nice, because it's origami! I have made this model for years now and added a few improvments; 1 or 3 point landing gear, and a reshape on the horizontal stabilizers. 10/10 Tutorial. Thanks.

[@mikelee4588]

This is awesome! Great instructions. It's not complicated at all. Unlike most people, I don't get frustrated. So thanks!

[@thebigbluevan]

@thebigbluevan If a part seems confusing, keep watching. I usually explain a step several times.

[@Spicecarius]

If I didn't pay attention I would of been watching you fold for half an hour.

[@thebigbluevan]

@reymatt76 Thanks for the comment, but don't count yourself out! Come back again after a couple weeks and try again. Sometimes it takes some time before things click.

[@BrandonEnzweiler17]

This was really helpful you did a good job! The drawing of the folds helps alot also so keep up the good work!

[@jrr4god]

This tutorial is so great and super helpful! I LOVED and was so THANKFUL how you explained every detail so clearly. The markings helped a lot! This was my first time trying it and I nailed it perfectly because of your instructions! I am gifting this plane to my Father; who, loves planes and I know he will be blown away! Thank you.

[@vinxsphinx8253]

Dude.

[@deelugo6837]

VERY good tutorial!!! I tried this one before and failed-a different video-you talking us through it really made it easier. Thank you.

[@bibittanamansemarang770]

Awesome jet plane partner

[@nanoswithabackbone232]

Not sure how you can explain better than that. I made one with ease watching your video. Super awesome!!! Thank you!!!

[@snakevenom56]

Not the only one who first thought of it as a Mig-29!

[@tchurlockdraggin]

You lost me in the turn, Maverick.

[@usmanhaider8490]

This is a masterpiece! you're a genius! thanks.

[@thebigbluevan]

@epicookies123 No, this model requires a rectangle. I guess you could fold the square into a rectangle first . . .

[@thebigbluevan]

@TheJTSniper98 What is the confusing part? Let me know, maybe I can clear things up.

[@swamp6825]

This is the first origami I’ve ever made! Turned out super cool thank you :D

[@BrianO2A]

NO NEED TO PAY 30 MILLION DOLLARS FOR A F-18 KNOW,JUST A DOLLAR!THANK YOU!!!Now I shall fly my F-18.

[@clutchgames2165]

That was hard but really cool how the finished project is

[@thebigbluevan]

@808HardCore I'm sorry you feel that way. If you let me know what you found hard to understand, maybe I can help clear things up.

[@Strigon01]

That looks more like a Mig 29 with those wings.... Either way very cool.

[@davidcolquitt9981]

Took me an hour (maybe longer) but I finally did it!! Thanks!!

[@zippypenny]

Thank you so much. .I just made it and it looks awesome! Now to make it with a $20 for a 5 year old little boy stuck in the hospital with Leukemia. I know he will love the distraction, the money and the plane. Thank you for such clear directions!

[@GetSmartydontcha]

I hope the little boy recovered.

[@mariovega2936]

U don't suck. I just cant do it with the bill I have... Ur an artist

[@user-ro8dy1qx5k]

thanks for the video,this is the best that can be made from money,very accessible all showed,I even not knowing the language,as from Moscow,I understood everything,thank you again

[@Agamerfr0zed]

20mins in and I give up :( But hey I made a dollar snowball :0

[@jambo0204]

I did it!!!! It looks exactly the same as the one in the video. Nice video mate, it took me long, and it aint easy.

[@thebigbluevan]

@nonkeybomb222 A US bill is about 6.7 cm x 15.7 cm. Doesn't need to be exact.

[@tythescreamofan1]

got it on my first try AND looked good thanks so much man

[@skyrising3832]

mine didn't turn out as good as yours but it was still pretty awesome, thank you :)

[@jessynisa23]

Awesome did it first try and didn't mess up :) nice video thank you.

[@stevielick5819]

I thought it was a piece of cake!! I had fun making it, if I could upload a picture I would! Great instructions, they were ideal for me :)

[@dynamitedavedotcom]

I made one. Looks cool.

[@LordQueezle]

Well I can't say my F-18 was as nice as yours but I am extremely satisfied with the way it turned out. :) Thanks for the tutorial!! (btw I also really love both tank designs!!!!) I am planning on doing a stop motion war with these. xD

[@Kahnartist112]

See now this is a "TUTORIAL" vid lol No confusion and points out all the parts I would have messed up.

[@thebigbluevan]

@MrAverageJ0E The first one's always a little shaky. Keep folding!

[@MissThinkabunch]

Mine turned out fine. :) Thanks for the video.

[@AngyDragonfly]

I made 200 of these over the past 12 days......you can see a big difference from the first one to the last one.....I need a new hobby.

[@demover7]

*Starts folding along with the video*.... *looks at video length* *Pauses*.......... *puts dollar aside and click on a new video*

[@nanoman172]

ignore the haters. for anyone with a good amount of origami experience, this model is somewhat easy. thanks for the help!! =P

[@LadySyrelyn]

aw man, this is awesome. thank you! can't wait to try this tomorrow! lol i watched like 7 mins of it, i couldn't stop watching..then i snapped out of it and decided it was a good enough video for me to fallow so i hope i actually go through with making one of these tomorrow. again. Thank you! :]

[@tcakes4u]

Thanks so much for this tutorial! Our Tooth Fairy brings origami dollars, and my son finally lost a tooth. She had no problems following it, and appreciates your time :D

[@jaron_ferrara]

Your son is a she?!?!?!?

[@robertmemmons]

+jaron ferrara Lol... No son lost a tooth fairy princess aka the mother 'SHE" made the airplane and her son appreciate it very much..! But that comment even though you already k were everything I just told you still cracked me up..Lol.

[@lrpisme]

Great explanation. Thanks you made that easy.

[@thebigbluevan]

@TheBatmansbitch Even though origami is a step-by-step process, it's still an art and takes a lot of practice to perfect. Keep at it but try other models before coming back to one that gives you trouble. Like anything worthwhile, origami takes patience and persistence, but also gives you great rewards for your efforts! Keep folding!

[@spencerhopkins91]

awesome! very clear tutorial. the only hard thing i did was make it with AA Missiles

[@zhiarsarkawt5649]

YOU MAKE THIS SHIT MORE COMPLEX, DO THE SHIT AND LET US GET OVER IT!

[@lukassmarkovskis5088]

amazing. Looks like T50

[@rhondajumber8739]

i have made three, thus is a great money making process and a very instructional video, Thanks!

[@HeeroXKwon]

Thanks! Only took one try with your tut. Nice job o:

[@BansheeHallow]

Looks more like a Mig-29, still cool.

[@Blackgam3r]

This is all the dollar is good for now

[@fernsehgucker180]

Well I need a dollar dollar, a dollar is what I need hey hey

[@TheJTSniper98]

@thebigbluevan sorry about the earlier comments, i was kinda on a rage. Lol.

[@iisadragon]

If I can throw it, and it goes forward, it’s flying Might be tumbling like hell, but it’s flying to me!

[@ramsesbarrios6806]

Cool video it took me two days just to finish it I finish half and the other day I finished the other half cool

[@MemeGnome]

That's a sexy MiG-29 you have there...

[@NinjaKilla961]

These are so cool

[@pelikasa1863]

Thx for the tutorial bro :)

[@trexStagemanager]

Love these videos I was giving money to a teenage boy and did not want to just give money so I decided to make it more creative.............Thanks

[@KayaKrash]

that was awesome , :D I have my f18 on my shelf , thank u :)

[@lolaj6488]

Bills have different thickness, depending on the denomination

[@SircLiveEvents]

make sure to pause while you fold. if not, you will be saying: Wow! that escalated quickly..

[@666Lexxy]

great video thanks! :D i needed 1 hour to build my own

[@DuelPhantom]

Thanks a lot ! Instructions were clear and I made it no problem !

[@JEGV.]

The dollar rings impress the ladies more. 8 )

[@darkanimne]

mine is like a futuristic plane xD anyway I love it. thanks for the tutorial

[@ilovejoelreynolds]

imagine he did not press record

[@VioletisaG]

Thank you this video made it much easier!

[@nate8379]

If people want to see money fly just Chuck a roll of quarters across the room it's that simple

[@TheJTSniper98]

Also thanks, the other tutorial was confusing and fast, but this one is good.

[@roeykey]

thanks allot i already made 3 of them the first two didn't come out as well as yours but the third one looked just like yours thanks

[@GetSmartydontcha]

Too bad they don't fly. I'd make me a squadron of jet fighters and take out some bad guys! This video is awesome. Sorry for the jerks that use the internet forum to voice the idiocracy they'd get pounded for in real-life.

[@TheJTSniper98]

@thebigbluevan, thanks for the concern, it was a VERY clear tutorial but when it came to the wing folding step at 20:00, I tried to watch several times but still couldn't figure it out. I'm not sure what you could to fix that though. Thanks :)

[@JunaBetaAquatic]

Thanks man...

[@tylok02]

5 year old folds this and says : ugh so mutch drawing

[@pelikasa1863]

Thanks for the great video :)

[@purplehaze6t9]

WOW!!! THATS SOME EXSTREAM ORIGOMI FOLDING BRO. I'M GOING TO GIVE THIS A TRY I HOPE I CAN DO IT WISH ME LUCK LOL. THANK YOU. BEN...

[@ATREIDESDUNCAN88]

advanced origami, thanks, great videos

[@FlowSense544]

nice explanations, but origami is hard as hell, i am crying myself out right now because i messed up....thanks i will try this again!

[@ZhenLiZhao]

19:50 This seems impossible! Though this guide so far is really helpful and perfect pace

[@WordUnheard]

To say that my first attempt looks like shit would be an insult to shit.

[@briannarizvi]

Got it on the first try :)

[@zzz7tj7zzz]

I LIKE TURTLES

[@briannarizvi]

lol

[@robjenaki]

Trent Gomez-Vidal me to

[@trinisuprazee]

robjenaki fuck both yall

[@adamko28]

i have the exact same picture of the bill printed i even checked the numbers on the bill exactly the same!!

[@minecraftpro167]

the last part made me crazy....

[@fossil98]

How in the piss do people actually work this stuff out in the first place. I am an atheist but if anything can convert me it is that Jesus was born to tell us the arcane black knowledge of how to make awesome shit with paper.

[@Gmello757]

thanks, now my dollar won't work in the vending machine

[@s2hottbaguettes]

i just wasted 1 hour of my life doing this and it looks so much better in a pic than in my hands -.-

[@patchiasson7067]

Really wish you would use a real dollar bill the entire time. I have to follow the bill itself and once you turned it over, confusion set it. Yes, I know it would be smaller but easier for some of us.

[@Cams-garage]

That's awesome!! How did you learn to do that?

[@rycao18]

he tried to make it legal with all the laws, that explained the paper switching, and yea, it could have gone faster though

[@HACreator]

You do great

[@AlphaSpirit888]

Well done!!!

[@underdogjo]

Thank you so much.

[@JEGV.]

I think someone had already done this to my dollar lol

[@markhughes5574]

Now I can burp my worm and go to bed and dream about someone burping my worm

[@heyitsmephilly]

Dolla dolla bill, y'all
