You have to glue together tabs at every connection?

I don't understand the 3D printing part.
Is it to give structure to the paper?

Prints of this size are limited by dimentions of print area. While ppl do print lifesize figurines they have to turn model into large number of parts and fit them together post print. While I can't deny difference in methods might seem silly, building doll by gluing plastic bricks together doesn't do it for me.
>>621383
If you mean cardboard assembly I worked on I paper doll thread I had only partial succes as I have not included any marking on parts which made fitting it together more or less guess work. Pepakura can be forced to work with model set of parts clipping throuhg one another at 90° angles but doesn't provide any way to mark where and how those parts intersect.

This stuff(pic related) is my most used as far anything that requires any larger paper with colors. It arrives perfectly square and it's cheap. There is better paper I've used, but it's usually for special models. I think my favorite so far is shadowfold. It's thin and easy to use.

I use car paint masking paper for more complex models.
it's strong, thin, keeps it's shape and it's dead cheap.

I've always admired people who can do these things. It's impressive dexterity and a performance just watching it and the results can be so beautiful and tacticle too. Crazy the talent I can see browsing this board. Making me consider trying it so it's interesting to see what papers people are using.

In remembrance of the last paper planes thread, which just so happened to be one of the oldest boards on 4chan that passed away quite recently, this thread will serve as its successor. Hopefully this thread won't be prematurely bumped into oblivion like the last one did.

Anyways, this thread could serve as a sort of "Paper Planes General". Feel free to post your designs, .pdf files, and folding instructions. Anything goes as long as it flies or at least looks like its supposed to.

Oh. I reported it to discord.

I have met a really beautiful girl at my university, she is someone very interesting. In a very nice act, she gives me a paper crane (it's the one in the photo).
I want to make something special in origami, I would like you to help me with some romantic and cute ideas, it could even be flowers.

PS: The level of difficulty does not matter.
>>
Simply make an identical crane, gift it back to her, and ask if your paper cranes can date. Just like, be cool about it yknow

She gave it to me and I think I put it in my pocket and then threw it in the grass idk don't remember but she jokingly was like upset I tossed it. Later she got actually upset and ruined my life lol

gonna try this rn

First, is there a commonly accepted file format for digital die cutting machines, like .stl files for 3D printers? Second, how likely would a local print shop be to have a machine that can use such files?
>>
>>621887
Phone them and ask. Also try a local maker space.
>>
>>621887
Cricuts and the like use .SVG files but you can upload jpeg images to them anyway. print and cutting is a thing too, print onto paper, machine cuts it
>>
Local scrapbook/card making shop probs have a cricut or the like.

Is Star Trek origami a good place to start? Looks fun and there are books on it

https://www.giladorigami.com/origami-star-trek
>>
As a beginner, any topic you like is good as long as there are good ressources.
Before purchasing books, you'd better look for free diagrams and videos (youtube has a lot of these) to begin with.
For example,
https://origami-resource-center.com/star-trek-origami
give links to many diagrams.

yes, so we must revive it
make a youtube channel, make a website, make a blog, make an instagram, make whatever, then post your papercrafts

remind people that papercraft exists, make people care again

made paper cup cutout version a few days ago
it's all retractable, I can fold her back in place and hide her away amongst other uncut paper cups
the other 2 behind her are old proto-types i couldn't bring myself to throw away

she keeps vigil over me seated on my speaker besides the cpu
so yeah papercraft is still alive and going strong in my heart
: DDD
>>
>>591172
It's not popular at all. Some people find it hard to get into and boring.
>>
>>591172
I don't think so but the overlap between 4chan users and people who do paper craft for a hobby is rather small.

seconded. i go to ren fair every year now since the big sick, and me and my friends make costumes out of nothing but cardboard (last years was a tamagotchi, pic rel). which i guess is more cosplay, but still. there are more ways to use papercraft than making a lil thing to sit on your shelf
