Re: Question on TreeMaker Crease Patterns

I don't know about TreeMaker, but that Maekawa theorem concerns flat models.
If Nova CP is for a 3D shape, that theorem does not apply.

Re: Tomoko Fuse Azalea, Rhododendron or whatever it is calle

This model is 「つつじ B」 from 「花の飾りおりがみ」 by Fuse Tomoko. つつじ is azalea, which is a sub-species of rhododendron as far as internet told me. :mrgreen: The book name translates roughly as "Origami flower decorations", but I don't think there is an English version of it. https://pictures.abebooks.com/isbn/...

Using an out-of-ink pen to mark a reference without coloring the paper is also convenient.

Re: A Function for Folding Odd-Numbered Grids?

The "obligatory" next question is what fraction each sequence needs to start at--unless it has to do with the primes' periodicity somehow. Does it really needs to start with a specific fraction though? Maybe I am mistaken, but here is how I understand it: after the last needed fold is done, you'll ...

Re: MC substitutes: starches, gelatine, PVA, etc.

I'm a bit curious about the life span of those origami, using milk (and the sugar one too) mixture.
Won't the milked paper get sour(?) (rotten?) after a while? Isn't it emitting a smell that might attract insects or other creatures?

Re: A More Efficient Way to Diagram Complex Models

You probably know about it already: there have been a few attempts in this field (some call it PCP, progressive crease-pattern) - but none has gone very far AFAIK.

Some examples on this page, search for "Progressive CP" to go to some linked resources (a few links are dead though).

Re: OrigamiHouse Next Publication List

so, is that rhinoceros diagrammed, and if so, whose is it? the translated table of contents doesn't have it listed. サイ:パク・ジョンウ It is a model from Korean creator Park Jeong Woo. I can't tell for sure because there is no detail, but it should be diagrammed (between pages 211 and 223? Page 224 is the ...

Re: ODT #8

If no more people (or not enough for a 3-round tournament) signs up, maybe you can organize it in a pool(?) form? Not sure of the technical term though - I mean a way where everyone will pair with everyone else. For example with 4 persons A, B, C and D: 1st turn: A and B, C and D. 2nd turn: A and C,...

Re: Please, name of the following models and their creators?

But if you really want to know whether there is an earlier version from a 1x2 rectangle I don't know anything about the author or history of this model, but I have seen it a few times (not in a $-using country) in different places (shops, restaurants, kindergarten...), and it was folded from 1x2 pa...

Re: Pyramid

Well, I don't know about social media either, but you can upload your images to some free picture-hosting websites (I did it with imgbb.com here, although there are many other options).
