Dividing into 24ths

Is there a way to make a 24x24 grid with just folding? I have used the search function, but I didn't find anything. Sorry if it's already there.

Fold the paper into thirds, then just make folds between those lines until you have 24ths.

Is a great link for making different grids. Remember, when you have to make a grid, always try to divide it by two so you get a more simple one.

just divide it into thirds and then bisect the thirds until you got the 24.

How about a pointer to ReferenceFinder?
See
http://langorigami.com/science/reffinder/reffinder.php4 - it's a program by Robert J. Lang that generates diagrams for any reference point you want to find. You can even customize the paper you start with (any rectangle).
And Robert made the effort of providing binaries for Windows, Mac, and Linux, so just about anybody should be able to install it.
It's a super program, and quickly answers these sort of questions.

It answers them, but often it does not answer them elegantly (or quite accurately). The methods mentioned, the Haga theorem, or the Fujimoto Approximation Technique (guess and check) are the best for dividing the paper into a regular grid.

Thanks for you help- now I would start folding Eileen Tan's Euparotus (Ok, I know the spelling's wrong)!

The site for finding out these things has been given so you can check them yourselves.
