PENNYWEIGHT PARATROOPER ! STEP 3: MAKING THE PARACHUTE PACK!
A) Put the penny onto the center of the 2 inch square piece of cardboard. Fold the sides
of the cardboard around and over penny until penny is tightly folded inside the
cardboard. You should end up with a flat roughly square shape with the penny inside.
This is the paratrooper’s “parachute pack.”
B) Use the three inch piece of tape to secure the “parachute pack” to the paratrooper (the
pack should be located at the center of his back.) This backpack will serve as the
balance weight to allow the parachute to float down properly. Hence the name
“Pennyweight Paratrooper.”
