You can typically fold a plastic drinking straw in half only once. Attempting to fold it a second time will likely result in the straw breaking or crumpling due to its rigidity and material properties. This limitation applies to standard plastic straws, which are not designed to withstand multiple folds.

How do you make a DC-3 paperairplane?

To make a DC-3 paper airplane, start with a standard sheet of A4 or letter-sized paper. Fold the paper in half lengthwise to create a center crease, then unfold it. Next, fold the top two corners down towards the center crease to form a triangle. After that, fold the triangle down so its tip meets the bottom edge of the paper, then fold the outer edges of the triangle towards the center line again, and finally fold the plane in half along the original crease. To create wings, fold down the top edges on each side to form wing shapes, and your DC-3 paper airplane is ready to fly!

Is laminated steel the same as damascus steel?

No. Damascus steel is made by forging multiple layers of thin steel. The process involves a lot of heat and pressure, and the result is like a single piece of steel of high strength. The properties are generally better than what can be had by bonding multiple layers together in a lamination. The superior strengh of damascus steel is produced by two layers of steel with different properties and forging them together, once this is done forging is continued by folding the two steels over and forging them again. This is continued until the layers produced give it the qualities required. Fold two pieces of paper you get 4 layers fold 4 gives 8 fold agin 16 fold again 32 etc. This is possible with steel because of the forgig but couldn't be done with paper, try it.
