30 units

Tutorial here

Wanted to try something different and try something with obvious slots instead of tension based. It is really fun to assemble but the units I don't think would like thicker paper, but I could easily be wrong. There are a few spots that are hard to do with thick paper but the ball allows for a lot uneven units. Unfortunately I used copy paper and the slots are load bearing so it is already trying to pull itself apart. I might pull it apart and reuse glue, it was really fun to assemble but 2x more tabs than slots requires paying attention. I made one of tomoko fuses boxes to hold the pieces because they are big and the thought of one getting stepped on was to much

found on the origami library YouTube. the x30 rafaleta kusadama.

apparently the units allow for a lot of shapes to be formed I am curious if it will get soggy at 60 units

15 units copy paper

no glue

 

is the first thing that I have made with 15 units

so it was a challenge to visualize out

and really fun to put together

It took a bit to make. It is not that is hard to make. The pieces just take a bit of thought to make.

The pieces have an interesting curve to them.

 

30x square units

Copy paper

Doesn't require glue, but it makes life easier

tried them both ways with some free magazine paper I had,

I don't like paying for paper with all the free paper in the world,

so you will see lots of strange stuff

 

both 30 pieces magazine paper

no glue

sonobe variation

 

number 3 and another of 2

I really should have put more thought into my paper choices with this one, it is a sonobe variation. But it is a really firm one. It requires putting the units into place before inserting any tabs into place. Because of the locking mechanism it hides irregularities wonderfully.

 

30 units square copy paper. It can't take really thick paper

No glue or tape.

I found the original information in a book online said use 1:2 rectangles, I just split 15 legal sized sheet in half.

 

x30 legal paper split in half

used glue, I think if I had used the size paper in the original unit it fit together better. but I still think it is pretty interesting

 

This one is floating around the internet under several different names. I originally found it as the qingping on a popular database site. I actually had translate the name from Japanese and find it on YouTube.

  

I originally wanted to make it because I am cleaning my desk off and using all of the scraps of paper on my desk that can be used stuff. This one turned out to be.

I like spikey balls

a really cool unit from a designer I just found.

it is called a carnation unit.

 

the big one is 30 units the little is 12, both are magazine paper.

I don't think I could have made it in plain white paper

tutorials can be found online

Trying to make something different. It will be a bit before I get all the units made, I wish I were using thinner paper. It affects the neatness.

 

I am using letter sized paper split in half, you can use pretty much any size rectangle greater than 1:2 mine is around 4x11.5 inches

It will be 30 units or if I get froggy 60 life has options :-)

I think it is a truncated dodecahedron it took forever to figure out from only being able to find one or two small pictures only, but I do think I will be doing more archimedian solids

I really like this one.

 

I have seen it in 1 side and 2 paper. I think it looks a lot better with dual sided paper it is really easy to get consistent results. I doubt it is overly durable. But i dont think it is going to explode sitting on the shelf.

  

I used 15 sheets of square Origami paper split into 1:2 rectangles for 30 pieces

 

I think it could be done with no glue, but after several hours og trying and failing

 

I used glue

I think it is a truncated dodecahedron, those units still don't photograph well

  

It looks a lot harder than it really is, and has several interesting color changes if made with nice paper

60 pieces of copy paper split in half.

it was really the cool, but when you get this many pieces of paper they need to be to be the same size, I kinda screwed it up. but I still think it pretty firm,
