Be patient. The folding is the longest part of the 3D Origami process. Try to keep the triangles in a box to avoid losing them. If you have a paper cutter or a paper trimmer available, use it! It makes the cutting process go by much faster. Stack the triangles in sticks. It helps in storage. Avoid folding too hard. The triangles stay together better when the folds are made softly.
