Instructions
The pages should print in the correct order they should be stacked in, but just in case, make sure that the cover and pages 3, 5, & 7 stack like this. Then fold the pages in half (individually for a tighter crease), unfold, and staple the spine. Alternatively, tape every individual page to its neighbor from the inside.
Fold each page in eighths individually, then unfold and refold in half hamburger-style. From there, cut from the middle of the spine to the middle of the folded page, and unfold. Finally, refold it hotdog-style, and push the edges into themselves to create a mini 8-page zine. Watching the video tutorial is recommended.
