I'll expand on this when I get home, but a sonobe is one type of modular unit. There are many different variations on the sonobe and some units that have a sonobe-like shape. There are also tons of other types of modular units.

I'm looking for diagrams for modular 2D stars that really hold without glue. My flagship here is Maria Sinayskaya's Braided Corona star. You know what I mean! But you have to try it out anew each time. So I'm folding my way through the 2D star world—always looking for new models. I'm specifically looking for diagrams or video tutorials for stars that can't be found by simply Googling (sorry. My search skills aren't sufficient beyond Googling, ChatGPT, and this 4chan board). These include:

Maria Sinayskaya: Brina Star, Camilla Star, Susanna Star, Tereza Star,

Evan Zodl: Interstellar, Maria's Star, and other stars!

Usman Rosyidhi: Deca Star; Rotari Star, Sturroya Star

Maximilliano Ortiz: both star books

etc.

Last but not least, the stars are for an already successful, ongoing social project. I have no personal commercial interest in this, but I would like to expand my portfolio for the project.

So please share with me, and thank you very much!

I don't get the question. lot of magazines vary in thickness. Those squares are almost thicker than I can use. It is a free travel mag so they are trying to look fancy. Here it is before I finished it and square of it

Mine is made from American sized poker cards. I know the original was in British bridge cards. And there were several late night conversations with a French mathematician. Here are a lot of other patterns to play with

Hello, I did some origami with a japanese thin newspaper but Id like it to be more sustained and have like a harder finishing.
What do you suggest to do to harden them? Some product maybe?
>>
you could try using modge podge spray to harden it or maybe resin
>>
You can try resin or transparent glue, but I'm not sure if this is considered "glitching the game", you could try the next time to use two copies of the same newspaper page and sandwich them with a blank paper in the middle

Methylcellulose adhesive is your best friend. Buy some bookbinding-grade powder, make a solution with water and apply.

I feel his stuff relies a lot on wet-folding and shaping. It's art at this point, not just following instructions. To get results as good as him is pretty much impossible for me.

well he is a Japanese origami master.. you have probably only been doing it for 2 months.. so don't be too hard on yourself

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.

Since the site seems to be dead, I've made available all the paperaircrafts.com models that I've been able to get a hold of.

https://meinframe.com/paperaircrafts/

If anyone has some that I don't (that aren't "compressed" and rasterized but still vector based) I'll be glad to add them.
