Do you have the book with the open frame cube? I had it a while ago, but lost it
How many inits did it take to make the menger sponge?
I like the colorplay on the middle star

>>623809
>open frame cube
not sure which you're referring to

>sponge
don't have a diagram, saw a pic of it and messed around till I had a product, the color pattern is also my own but I don't have a diagram anymore. Unit is very similar to a Phizz unit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlcMwXUqmuI with slight modification you can use these units to make a cube. once you have that you can make the sponge.

Good afternoon. Does anyone have this book?

This is by far the best modular origami book i have, ask if you want more

>>623807
beautiful collection man, and I love the color choices. Idk if the other anon asking about the diagrams was curious about the same model, I'm wondering if you have a diagram for the colourful ring next to the rainbow cube ring (the one mentioned here >>623812), the big circle thingy. Looks amazing.

>>623818
seconding as well, the models look really really neato ಥ ͜ʖಥ

Does anyone have this book's full version? All the pdf's i found are from page 9 onwards, but the diagrams for the cube units are on page 8, so I can't find nor make them. Even youtube doesn't have a video tutorial specifically for tomoko fuse's cube so I'm at a loss. I know they may be quite basic but I can't figure out how to make them.

Do any of you have any wips or recently finished pieces

That amazing anon!!!

What're some models I should fold if I've got a ton of sticky notes?

i want to make as big modular origami as i can, any blueprints?

>>623867
What exactly do you mean by blueprints? If you mean folding diagrams, then download any of the pdfs in this thread. If you mean an overall plan of how the project will come together, then you need to consider size and material.
>as big as i can
is pretty vague. The largest (origami) paper I can find in stores is 35cm, but the length will likely exceed that on the finished model.

Trying fora long time to find this one. If anyone has it, please share.

>>623863
I wish I was autistic enough to bear cutting the paper into those insane ratios. Honestly the biggest filter for me

>>623870
Atleast for the original F.I.T. model, dollar bills are almost perfect. The slight oversize makes the fitment rather sturdy.

>>623871
Not American so that trick doesn't work - but I have made F.I.T a good number of times, and a few other wireframes like 10 intersecting triangles and Makalu. But they all have a) not too many units and b) are easy ratios like 1:3 and 1:4 etc. Not some madness like 1.1354453:5.51123121 or whatever bonkers ratios some models require

>>623872
hi there, the proportion in the dollar bill its 1:(sqrt(2) -1)

you can always grab an A4 paper and make an square. the left paper has that proportion

>>623873
Thanks for he tip, but like I said before, I have made FIT before

hey guys, when i was a kid, i used to do lots of modular origami. i could find instructions for all the models i could ever want to make online.

but now, it seems like they're all gone. can i still find them for free or do i need to start paying up cash for books?

Recently completed this out of sonobe units! Simple, a bit fragile and wonky, but lots of pieces. Looking for good models to make out of the rest of the ~100 units in my calendar.

>>623877
This looks really nice anon

>>623877
How many units is that? By my count/estimate I'm getting 264 or 288.
I never really like square builds for sonobes, but your folds and assembly are very clean. Well done

>>623878
>>623879
Thank you anons. I believe it took a total of 168 units if my math is correct. it's not very visible due to the angle I took the picture, but this is essentially a 3-d "#" symbol.

I will admit that I used tape on some of the interior joints so that it stays together -- this is living in my office, so I don't want a curious coworker feeling bad for it falling apart if they pick it up!

To calculate the number of Sonobe units in a given model, I usually just count the number of right triangular "faces", i.e. where the unit fits into another. Each unit has exactly two, and as long as every "pocket" is filled, each right triangular face counts for 1/2 of a unit. Each square face counts for 1 unit.

If I had to do it again, I would use a sonobe variation instead so that the units fit together more tightly, but I used simple units so that the sudoku puzzles would be more visible.

The two short answers are 1. experiment and 2. flickr
1. While some things are designed with certain configurations in mind, most kusudama (and especially sonobes) can fit together in a variety of different unit configurations. So the easiest thing before you invest in a project is to consider how many units make up one face or vertex and see how they look together.
2. Flickr has a great origami community and is a good starting point to look for inspiration and often times artist will have instructions or cps for their models. Also with practice you can figure out how to reverse engineer models from pictures and notes about the model.

Very beautiful anon! How did you manage to hold together that pseudo-Sierpinski cube? It seems to hold its shape very well. Are those sonobes?

Also, do you have instructions for the three kusudamas in the bottom middle (dodecahedron and 20/12(?) pointed stars)?

The menger sponge I got from here: http://origami.barcodebattler.co.uk/l1.htm

It's pretty sturdy, but it's mostly held together by compression, unlike the Torus >>623824 which you can pick up and throw around without it falling apart.
The main issue with the cube is that it's only really stable once it's fully complete so it's quite easy to fuck it up during construction.

my first completed modular of any decent size! underestimated how difficult the last few units would be.

Made a flexiball a while back and had to glue the units together in the end, otherwise it would just fall apart. Also had to reassemble it a couple of times because I'm a dumbass and don't know how to follow instructions. One thing I learned from this is I probably shouldn't deviate from the instruction in terms of color/pattern because it makes the process so much harder for me.

This model is odd because it requires tape to stay together (or glue)

by siun_kusudama

>>623906
Rather I should say that tape makes the construction much easier. I think it might be possible without, but very difficult.

>>623862

I know it's been 3 years, but I gotta point out how incredible it is to make this model, so cleanly, out of newsprint. Honestly wondering if it's photoshop.

>>623905
Check Wayback Machine

Are there different kinds of sonobe, or are all modulars made from the same style of sonobe?

>>628028
I'll expand on this when I get home, but a sonobe is one type of modular unit. There are many different variations on the sonobe and some units that have a sonobe-like shape. There are also tons of other types of modular units.

I'm looking for diagrams for modular 2D stars that really hold without glue. My flagship here is Maria Sinayskaya's Braided Corona star. You know what I mean! But you have to try it out anew each time. So I'm folding my way through the 2D star world—always looking for new models. I'm specifically looking for diagrams or video tutorials for stars that can't be found by simply Googling (sorry. My search skills aren't sufficient beyond Googling, ChatGPT, and this 4chan board). These include:

Maria Sinayskaya: Brina Star, Camilla Star, Susanna Star, Tereza Star,

Evan Zodl: Interstellar, Maria's Star, and other stars!

Usman Rosyidhi: Deca Star; Rotari Star, Sturroya Star

Maximilliano Ortiz: both star books

etc.

Last but not least, the stars are for an already successful, ongoing social project. I have no personal commercial interest in this, but I would like to expand my portfolio for the project.

So please share with me, and thank you very much!
