The Origami Forum

Just over a week ago or so i ordered myself a copy of "Origami to Astonish and Amuse". This was to be my 2nd book (I know I'm slacking) or so I thought ^^

Had to take the car to the garage today to be fixed (again) and so I thought I would go on a wander whilst waiting. found myself in a used bookstore i had been meaning to visit.

Browsed around for about 10 minutes and found myself in shock!!!

"Origami Design Secrets by Robert J Lang" staring me in the face.

Instantly checked it was complete and rushed to the counter, even more of a shock the guy only wanted £11 for it

Origami Design Secrets is a great book!! Good choice. I like hummningbird from this book.

Working thru it should last you a long time !

Will last me a while, some of the models in there seem a bit much for me at the moment so I guess I will be coming back to this book often as my origami improves

Origami Design Secrets is like an origami Bible. Not only does it have several fun to fold models, but if gives priceless information on how to design models. I highly recommend reading it from cover to cover (it'll take a while, but it is worth it). The section that I found the most helpful was the circle packing section - I have never really used circle packing much, but the section was fascinating to read. I also enjoyed the point-splitting section.
