This was a long sheet of heavy grey paper that I folded up and wrote a letter on. I left two sections blank to use as the front and back, then used mailing seals to close it up.

When storing kimono, if your box is big enough, I recommend laying them flat with the sleeves folded in.
If your box is smaller, fold the trailing "feet" part up under the sleeves to make a shorter garment.
Properly folded United States ensign.
I recall one time in Hawaii when returning from leave I boarded a ship that was heading out of port to meet up with the ship I was stationed on - USS Ranger, CV-61 - and there were a few new guys with me. They'd never ever boarded a ship before so I told them how; salute the ensign, then turn and salute the Officer of the Day (OOD) or his representative and request permission to come aboard. A 2nd Class Corpsman came up and stood there at the end of the gangplank looking toward the fantail like he was searching for something. I asked what he was doing and he replied that he was looking for the Ensign (as in Naval officer) so he could salute him. I told him that was the wrong one, I meant ensign as in National Ensign, which was flying from the staff on the fantail. He told us "I can't see it from here". I told him salute anyway and then request permission to come aboard from the OOD - which in this case was a Chief (E9). He turns and is looking around again so I asked him what he was doing and he said he was looking for the officer to salute. Sometimes smaller ships have Chiefs as the Acting OOD and this was one of them. I told him to salute the Chief and request permission to board which he finally did. The Chief asked me where we found this guy. After a few minutes, the Corpsman puked on the deck and told us he could feel the ship rocking which made him seasick. The Chief told him "Son, we're still tied to the pier, if you think this ship is rockin' now, you're really going to hate it when we get out on the ocean!" Poor guy, spent the whole night in the head (Navy term for toilet) pukin' his guts up.
Folding handlebars. Undo the quick-release lever below the hinged stem, push the little gold buttons while pulling the handle outward, then pivot downward.
This one folds up small enough for me to keep in the house. It's also much lighter than my current bike. I need a new seat (I have an extra somewhere) but I knew that when I recognized the swinn seat - feels like leather, sits like rock.
1 of 2 folded / pop-up ATCs made for a group swap. (I still need to track down the photo of the other one!) Top shows the closed view, bottom shows it opened up. I used directions from a free Dover download on making popup birthday cards to create the castle. This one incorporated various patterned and textured paper scraps I acquired at The Scrap Box.

Having a sawhorse to safely hold wood so you can cut it is great - but why pay for one? Build your own Folding Pallet Sawbuck and save those "sawbucks"!
How to build this Folding Pallet Sawbuck:
This is my second project, after some simple raised beds. This is a straightforward build. I used four pallet stringers and formed two "X" shapes, screwing them together. I installed one deck board as a cross-bracing, and it was complete!
I took my time, and it still only took about 30 minutes. This is a fast and easy project to build - and have handy - for your next pallet projects! :D

I discovered at the bottom of one of our storage wardrobes a partly demolished Menger Cube. It was buried beneath several pillows and a duvet, forgotten and forlorn. It was just waiting for somebody to say, "Oh, I remember that, it was when we visited the Museum that time". We had gone with our granddaughters to an interactive exhibition of art and mathematics and we were able to make a small cube by folding 6 business cards and interlocking the tabs. When 2 cubes had been made we could then interlock the tabs of their adjacent faces. Then we could keep interlocking adjacent faces of more cubes. After 20 small cubes and lots of patience you have a large cube of interlocked small cubes. This large cube can then become a new base cube for an even larger cube ad infinitum.
A fine example of fractal organisation.

I held a series of three sessions at KPF NY demonstrating severals ways to transform a flat single sheet of paper into a complex form. I demonstrated folds that used both standard origami techniques (square paper, no cutting) and more modern approaches (laser-cut and -scored curves). The square forms date back to the Bauhaus movement and I was inspired by the work I did for Erik and Marty Demaine when choosing the shapes of the curved forms. Special thanks also to Alex Soijka who helped with the video.
