UnitOrigami photos on Flickr

I found these a few days back. And really just wanted to find one nice enough to give my wife. Plus this one being made from 1:2 scale rectangles. I was able to use the left over paper I had from making squares. It is nice to feel like I am wasting paper to.

There is a big debate online on when to curl the petals. Normally I swear against curling paper. So I had to try every way I saw. I decided to completely assemble the ball and then take each flap out individually to curl it. It meant assembling the ball twice. And maybe a third time to glue it together. unfortunately I didn't stop enough to get pictures because I was to focused over that

The page I found this unit has several different units made from several different shapes of paper. And there are lots of videos on YouTube

30 units copy paper

a4 size rectangles

tutorials can be found in book "david brill brilliant origami"

the units allow a lot of different things to be built. I know you can build a ball with x24 or x60 units. and once they are put together, they don't come apart easily.
