Measure coordinates of important-looking crease intersections with a ruler. Then divide the distances by the total side of the square, so you get decimals between 0 and 1. Then put coordinates in Reference Finder.
By the way, this crease pattern is HARD. Like super hard. Even once you get the whole thing collapsed, there's still a ton of work left. I currently have the base sitting around somewhere, waiting for me to attempt to form it into a lobster...

If you want to order, you can go here :
http://www.britishorigami.info/supplies/supplies.php
To see the other models of this convention :

But take care : do NOT order the CD version, because M. LANG doesn't allow to put his diagrams on an electronic support. You will only find his incredible diagrams on the paper edition.

that model looks super hard.
i'm guessing that if i get the creases except the rabbit-ears, then i can maybe do it, as the whole thing is mainly made up of rabbit-ear molecules. but the references may be super-hard to figure out, though.

It is very hard. I folded it from the diagrams a while ago, and Eyal folded one today aswell.

Re: Robert Lang Maine Lobster help
yeah, this model is extremely hard, i'd suggest precreasing the pleat sinks before you start folding, then while you are folding each molecule, sink along the way.... don't wait until the base is completed to start sinking
here's my fold from a while ago... I doubt i'll fold it again

Re: Robert Lang Maine Lobster help
Awesome job, Nick! Yeah, It does look extremely hard. Since it's a treemaker model, It's bound to be hard.
Re: Robert Lang Maine Lobster help
I am actually working on this right now. I have the whole base collapsed except 1 sink, and it is a very difficult model with very strange references.
