yes but i used elephant hide and i'm still shaping the creases on the top of the spinner so my paper needs about 5 more days to dry in order for it to spin properly

Smosher, your posts did not get deleted, they weren't approved yet when you complained. Each new member needs his first three posts approved by a Moderator before they are made public. If you change a post during this period, it needs to be re-approved and therefore vanishes temporarily from sight. I know it is kind of a bug, that you can't see your own posts after sending. That's plain stupid in my opinion, but I'm not sure whether there is a way to change that.

As long as you post them, 5 days will be fine.

Chris Palmer finally published a somewhat simplified version of the spinner from the original video, in Creased Magazine. It is called the Hexagonal Flasher Top. It is a fairly complex design and hard to collapse but it folds neatly into a tight cylinder with a well-defined conical pointed base.
