Let me start of by saying that the more I read about origami snapology, the more information I find! Plenty of tutorials are available to make the basic snapology unit. As for assembling the units into various polyhedra, there are tutorials for assembling the Icosahedron but all other polyhedra are strictly DIYs But once we understand the polyhedral shapes, using snapology units to form those shapes is fascinating, though challenging. To start off with the [Continued..]
The dodecahedron kit is a part of a series of similar kits from the book ‘Polyhedron Origami’, by Miyuki Kawamura. The other kits in the series include the Edge Module, Tetrahedron, Octahedron and Icosahedron kits. Each of these kits are made up of 2 kinds of modules – the vertex modules (which forms the corners of the polyhedron) and the edge modules (which connects 2 vertex modules). The vertex module is different for different polyhedra, [Continued..]
I recently bought Tomoko Fuse’s ‘Unit Polyhedron Origami‘ and I was immediately tempted to try out one of the first models described in the book – the regular polyhedron. It is an interesting model to make and I must say I love the end result Assembly is slightly difficult in the initial stage, where you have each module trying to come apart. But after around 7 modules have been added, adding the rest is quite [Continued..]
