I have to make a hot air balloon out of tissue paper.

[image loading]


That's how the panels are supposed to cut. The bottom will fold into a circle so we can fill it up to fly and the top is a closed circle. The way these panels are set, everything fits together perfectly.

My question is if my panels were like this.

[image loading]


Would it fold together the same way?

No. The former is an open ended cone. The latter changes angle several times and would be far more complex and less stable.

A hot air ballon out of tissue paper??

1st question...why are you trying to preform this?
2nd, wouldn't the tissue paper catch on fire or rip from the constant heat pressure?

We might have to call Charmin in on these one.

Shit if you can use paper towels some Bounty would be great..Or find some industrial paper towels/toilet paper. And yea wouldnt the paper just rip from the heat pressure?

Bah well im not so much help.
