The Origami Forum

Well, pretty self-explanatory. I'm somewhat in shock that the only age-related thing here is current age. Aaaanyways, just say when you started! I started when i was 3-4

When I was 16, so about 4 to 5 years ago.

i started when i was... 9 or 10

i started when i was about 7 but i only really took it up seriously a couple of years ago

If the question is when I started folding more seriously, then probably 17 or 18 years old.

same but i was 5 i think

I´ve folded some traditional models from time to time since I was 6 or some thing, only started doing it seriously ´bout a year ago when I was 14.

When I was 11

I folded paper airplanes from around five years old, but the first complex models I folded were from Montroll and Lang's book Origami Sea Life at age nine.

Let's see I was in fourth grade so it must have been...somewhere around 9 years old. (Not including paper airplanes)

12 - my first crane
22 - my first Five Intersecting Tetrahedra

Quite slow, but I'm fine with my progress so far. Some periods of hiatus during these last ten years.

I learned to fold cranes and other "traditional" models at age 3 or 4, so about 11-12 years. I only started seriously folding this year, though. I feel I have progressed greatly so far, in this year, I have learned (kind of) how to fold from CP and also super complex models.

Same as phillipcurl, though I started at 7.

A few weeks before I turned 41

Which was just a few months ago...
