With craft paper, 160 cm / 16 cm. The model is 28 cm high, 12 cm large (taking the leaf but 7 cm without the leaf).

I used the floor only to measure and cut the necessary strip of paper, after I fold it on a table (part of the paper was out of the table).

I folded it three times, all three times on a table.

The first one from 20x200cm paper:

The second one from 10x100cm paper:

The third one from 4.8x48cm paper:

Here's an article about the first one that I folded together with my friend:

If you should consider folding the clock I recommend you take 16x160cm as starting size, this should be about the ideal size.

I made his first clock from 21 foot paper. For the BFC I used much smaller. I was the test dummy for that one, so any mistakes are probably my fault. The biggest (original) problem with the diagrams was some miss-numbering. While it created some confusion for me, I really felt bad for Robert who had to type in the numbers again for about half the instructions.
