uh yeah i can help i actually made one but i used a template that i cut out because i'm not that good with brilliant stuff. you can go to books.google.com and look for double star flexicube and the only book that will come up should be brilliant origami. click on it and it show how to make the unit and how to assemble the half squares, the connectors, then the whole thing. if you have trouble putting the whole thing together, go to metacafe.com and type in "paper star cube! cool" and the video preview should show a picture of the entire star cube completed. and that's it. happy folding!
Happy Folding!

Hey, I can't figure out how to get a look inside Brilliant origami for how to make and assemble the double star flexicube. I saw a way to make one by cutting and taping, but I am sure there is a way to make it without doing either.

Hi! It's been a long while since I've been active on here. I deleted my Dropbox years ago, so some things, like my Dragonfly Varileg guide, are lost to time. I may still have other things, though! Email me if you have any questions.

Hey guys,
On David Brill's website:http://www.brilliantorigami.com/Home.html
I saw the diagrams for his Double Star Flexicube here:http://www.brilliantorigami.com/dsf.pdf
Sadly, I'm stuck on step 7-11. :oops:
If someone could possibly post a video or pictures, that would help me greatly :D

Thanks! :mrgreen:
Keep on trying, it will work.

If anyone wants to make the Double Star Flexicube by David Brill,
go to Adams Sara's channel Here
This isn't illegal because she asks permission if she can make a video out of it.
Be sure to see her other vids! :D
(sorry if I advertised too much)

Keep up the good folds!
