About this fold
A larger fold with real weight to it — ears, trunk and a broad back. More layers and finer points. Give yourself the full time and it stays pleasant. There is no timer and no score — the estimate below is only there so you know roughly what you are choosing.
Design note: An original QuietFold model concept; its physical sequence is still in review.
