Description I hope everything can be understood. The "Accordion Method" can be found here [link] (I'm not quite sure if anybody else has ever used this method, but I'll call it like that by now.)
I put 5 "accordion lines" but you can put more or less, it's up to you, as well as the length. (Depending on how many, and how long you make it, is how the button will bounce) and well, if you have any doubt, ask away!.

Don't worry, the first two parts are joined by the spiky flaps, you just have to glue the spiky flaps of one piece to the other, and if you still don't understand, you can always try seeing the model in 3D with Pepakura viewer. (just download, install, and open the .pdo file inside the rar that I posted :3) Hope it helped! n_n

StormL In reply to ForeverMittens [2012-06-15 11:15:40 +0000 UTC]

I would LOVE to! the problem is I don't have a web cam, or even a video camera so I can't. I could take many many pictures and turn them into a gif...but it would take me ages xD >.< still if you have any doubt I could try to explain them wih text...

It took me a long time to do the first step right and then I couldn't get the button to fit in so I had to crush it a bit
I don't even feel like finishing anymore

StormL In reply to CaptainError [2012-05-17 22:55:08 +0000 UTC]

Well, you could try out simpler papercrafts and return to this one when you feel more skilled. I remember the first time I made a cubeecraft I felt frustrated because it looked horrible xD then I made more cubees and felt I could do something bigger, that's when I met papercrafts in general. After building around 5 models it just got easier. I hope this can help you to keep on trying n_n

CaptainError In reply to StormL [2012-05-18 01:59:39 +0000 UTC]

I have tried papercraft before this one and I ruined all of those too...
Perhaps I'll just have to persuade my brother to make one for me

Warning: long reply.

Wooh! I'll upload it tomorrow with little tutorial I didn't put any color to it in case you wanted to paint it, or idk...use your imagination? in any case it's super simple!, (so you can make it many times and they can count for a week or so xD)

I'm glad to hear you'll continue! sometimes for me...it's like my inspiration escapes with my creativity to a land far away, it just takes some time for them to come back, and it's usually when I feel happy. But anyway, -irrelevant information- Keep it up!

EPIC IM MAKING IT.
Does part 4 needs to have the bottom glued too?

StormL In reply to tobelebo9 [2012-05-16 19:59:18 +0000 UTC]

Well, You don't need to glue to bottom. ...if you make the accordion lines long enough. (I would glue it though...but it's up to you )

tobelebo9 In reply to StormL [2012-05-16 20:22:07 +0000 UTC]

Umm i just found out part 4 has a flaw.
next to the 2 circles it has those spikes but they can't move.
You might have to edit those out

I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean...I suppose you're talking about the pdo...but....you mean the spikes can't be edited in pepakura designer?
