If you see the end result of this wikihow article, we're pretty sure you say "Oh man, I could never do that!" Wrong.  You can do this, and it is actually relatively easy to execute. Paper, scissors, thread, a stapler, and tape - that's about all you need to perform this awesome crazy 3D paper snowflake.

I have a hopeless addiction to the show Survivorman. As a nature dork, I love the idea of surviving off the fatta th' land, as they say. Les (the dude who is Survivorman) has taught me some indispensible lessons - in the event I get stranded in a remote location with only a broken motorbike, a really heavy pack, and two acorns. Amazingly enough, this instructable is in the spirit of Survivorman (and Boyscouts). Enjoy!
