    Hi people.
    i have been into Papercraft lately and i came across a set of Japanese instructions..

    now i know that the first means to cut
    the second means mountain fold
    the third means valley fold
    and the last means to cut and remove.

    WHAT DOES THE 4TH LINE MEAN>??
    this has been hindering my progression

    Thank you in advance..

    I believe that one is an "x-ray" line. It's usually used to show where the edges of the paper are when they're not in clear sight in the diagram.

    EDIT: Didn't translate, just going off of knowledge of origami.

    Best I can find is this.
    Second character means "fix" by itself.
    Not sure what the last character is though.

    individually, the vernacular makes no sense and probably means something important..just go on an origami site, try to find a glossary page and learn what they mean.
    that would do you more good than the trans i just posted

    edit: no swearing
