[sachinxxx]

the measures have to be very accurate

[sachinxxx]

[manskybook]

hate to be grammar police, but it's "you're" done - you know, you + are = you're?

nice little glider

[rawknexstuff]

Grammar police:

"Hate", not "hate".

"Nice" not "nice".

"glider." not "glider"

@rawknexstuff
how do u do that to ur profile pic?

[rawknexstuff]

Inkscape (simple scalable vector graphics drawing program)

[manskybook]

So you agree there should be some standards?

[rawknexstuff]

Yes, I do.

[Yandle]

I'll just leave this here.

that picture is ugly

[rawknexstuff]

Well played, well played.

[paperairplanecreator]

[jjone538]

Great Tutorial

[patriots8888]

you should add a pdf design that people can print

[czacha42]

if your plane is too light, you can staple the front.
Btw nice work.

[A flyin muffin]

The plane I made was too front heavy. It just did a nose dive.

[dhanveetech]

dose it work

[christpher]

yes it works

[sajithmelaka]

yes

[christpher]

wow this is cool

[lil larry]

nice plane!!! for some reason my plane dives down and rises up, but good job!!! :)

[AngelaGrace]

Mine does it too. Most of the time that is. I just finished it and I think it's cool.

[kcls]

Good photos! Do you still have the original design? Can you scan it in to make it easier to cut out and put together?

[bd5]

I just drew it in Autocad. If you like I can send you a copy (in .pdf if you prefer). Shoot me an email if you'd like a copy.

[doctoradi]

can you please pass me a copy - [e-mail]

[Delo97]

Nice! Now I can spam you!
Just joking, never mind

[rexdino5]

Mmm... Autocad. That things kinda tricky to use. I'm taking a pre-engineering class in my 9th grade right now and the program is very hard to use with triangles... but autocad is a great solution. I'll try it when I get to school tomorrow.

hello

[soldeir 9]

kewl ! ! all ready to make it, cant wait!!

[DELETED_jorgegunn]

Ohh this is super cool they are soo tiny. I made a PDF too. But i added a little color. Thands for Instructable i would have never thought to just make this but when i saw this i had to try. I made my nose wrapp aroound a little longer

[Edmundo096]

Nice artworks, thanks!

[yamiyobi]

Nice work man they look really cool in the sky!!!

[tictaclad]

thank you!!! i had such a hard time drawing it myelf

[tictaclad]

i didnt think it would actually fly but it did...i threw it hard and it did a fast little loop...big loop for its size

[rexdino5]

Would this work if you make a similar shape but still in the same proportion? As in similar I mean same proportion.

[rawknexstuff]

These planes are perfect size to put a toothpick in the middle.
