Firecracker?

Post by Aznman »

Hi, I am new.....

But I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find the diagrams to the "firecracker" It is a modular piece that can be twisted inside out. It's kinda hard to explain, but any answers would be appreciated.

Are you referring to the modular Fireworks model by Yamauchi?

http://www.angelfire.com/art/gilad/BO_C ... guide.html

(Scroll to the bottom of the page).

As Gilad's page says, you can find this in Rick Beech's Origami (sometimes also called Origami Handbook, and also Practical Origami).

There are diagrams for this piece in 'Origami' by
Rick Beech. They are photo diagrams so it's a little
confusing on how to construct but it works. I love this
model. It is such a clever fold isn't it? :wink:
