I am ready to admit defeat!

This is a partial collapse of the Gamma Star model by John Montroll.

I've stopped on step 58 of 61. Sad, but it's not going to come together.

His one-sheet origami polyhedra models are some of the hardest collapses I know. Anyone done this with success?

I am using 50 X 50 cm 300gsm watercolour paper, which is completely wrong and silly, but I like the challenge. Even the pre-creasing took hours....

@cyanotype Never done it. The challenge is too high for me!
Have you try using small clothespins, or paperclips?

@Marvin_Rouge I did try clips, but the problem is the paper. It's way, way too thick! My fault, but I still enjoy the process a lot. And sometimes it works!
