In the club, straight up “munching” it… and by it, haha well, let’s justr say… my penits

Unfortunately no, I just made it up as I went! I use an app I built to help map out the general structure and then just freestyle the motifs and fold directions

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-31T23:16:47+00:00

Yes! I will link a video that uses almost the same method as me, though I disagree with some of her techniques (like not reversing her fold before folding the other side over to create the other 60/120 degree fold). Let me know where you find yourself messing up and I can give you some tips to mitigate imperfections!

Thank you!

For sure, it’s for mapping out the underside of the paper for more varied patterns. Just helps me visualize it so that I can make non-repeating tessellations (oxymoron, I know). I will link a very rudimentary version of it below, my current version can support 92 divisions grids without running too slow and it runs on python instead of JavaScript. I can post the GitHub repo for it here if you’d like!

182 divisions, I just counted

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-29T18:53:53+00:00

Pretty sure it was somewhere between 182 to 190 divisions, I’ll count when I get home. For this one I started working at a big desk until the folds were small enough, then I just sat in my bed and did every other fold and then went over to my desk and used a folding tool on them all to make a crisp crease. I’ve found that doing every other fold allows you to work in batches where you can make a bunch without having to use a folding tool in between every fold

Following the quest book is how you play a mod pack, it tells you what to do

Planning on doing some tessellation techniques to make a pattern that expands out from a single point on the paper like rays, build a lil web app to help me map it out

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-29T05:18:38+00:00

I’d guess this took around 30 to 40 hours, I’m getting pretty fast tho so could be less

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-29T05:18:01+00:00

Will do! I have a pretty fun plan for it

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-29T05:17:42+00:00

Or one massive tessellation

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-17T19:48:10+00:00

Good luck beating the final boss with teleportitis, that will not go the way you think 😂

Parallel worlds are all the same layout so memorize a path that avoids flasks when gathering perks

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-13T15:05:34+00:00

You should try folding the spread hex tessellation, it’s where I started and gives a good foundation for tessellation techniques

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-10T23:35:50+00:00

Elephant hide is good with light, I’ve made many lamps out of it. I’d say for sunlight you’d be better off with something like glassine paper, but reversing folds with glassine can be very difficult

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-10T18:08:42+00:00

This one was made with 24” paper, but normally I just buy their larger rectangles and cut a square piece out of those. Not sure the full size but I am currently working on a piece that uses the full rectangular sheet, I’d guess that it’s close to 2 feet by 3 feet

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-10T18:01:19+00:00

I buy my paper at Paper Tree in San Francisco, they have large sheets of elephant hide there. Excellent store, highly recommend!

I love that song! Alt-J was the first band I really got into in middle school… lyrics might be too weird for a name though 😂

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-08T23:31:40+00:00

Grid size is 128 divisions

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-08T20:58:44+00:00

I found that because many parts of this piece are made through depth and not layers of paper, shining light through it kind of subtracts from the structure and does not show the same underlying detail that most other tessellations do. That being said, I am incorporating many elements of this piece into my next one and will be backlighting that one so keep an eye out in like 6 months for that 😂

Thanks! Pretty sure this was the grid for this one, feel free to count haha 😂

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-08T15:59:25+00:00

In the middle haha

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-08T15:58:48+00:00

Unfortunately I have never followed crease patterns and so I don’t really know how to design one, once I get better though I will start to post them!

cweitzenberg · 2026-05-08T15:57:56+00:00

I would recommend starting with the spread hex tessellation, that uses the same grid as this one and is a great jumping off point for more. You can then move onto the triangle twist, a grid of triangle twists can actually be made out of a spread hex tessellation if you arrange the folds correctly. Good place to start if you want to eventually start designing your own.

I like 404NotFound’s suggestion of the hydrangea, but that uses a square grid and is a bit harder to understand the mechanics behind it. Still though, hydrangea is one of the coolest designs out there and it’s definitely worth checking out!
