Life--size wine rack folding diagram wanted and needed
Dearest everybody,
The time is ripe for origami to become functionalistic. I reckon it would be pretty sweet to be able to fold your own life size furniture.
Does anyone know of a working wine rack folding diagram? I need a place to put my bottles of wine.
What do YOU think about that, huh?
Thanks you kindlys.

It can be done....but with cardboard of course! Have a look at this site.....it has a futon bed made with 7mm thick cardboard.....the storage compartments holding some personal items is very innovative. You could certainly make a wine rack with the same idea

@ paperz
That bed you link to absolutely the sweetest thing imaginable -- an absolutely stunning creation. Lotsa love from Sturla, lotsa!!
I'm gonna do the bed instead, it's way cooler.

At this point, I can't resist pointing out the cardboard house:

Granted, it's not exactly origami, but perhaps it's possible to fold one up.

there's a german company that sells furniture made from paper (crincled cardboard to be more specific). they are also selling beds and tables and stuff at resonable prices:

here are their products:

they could surely make a wine rack out of cardboard (they even have a working sex-proofed bed )

Sweeet links!
The links you guys throw around in here are absolutely great and very inspiring. Especially the German design firm specializing in affordable cardboard furniture, is something I intend to look closer into and eventually buy the bed avalible at a ridicoulus 70€.
Keep 'em coming and take care,
Sturla.

uhm i hav an IDEA, but not a diagram. heres what i think should work: two cardboard slim pieces upright with slits in it. like this:
|>>>|
|------|
|>>>|
|------|
... except the carbboard sides are straight, and the ">" means nothing. so like, before you put the wine on the racks, you should double reinforce it. around 1 inch under each shelf you should slide another cardboard under it. approx. cost for all items: 10$
my equation is thinking of the cost of sci. project boards, so each is around 4$. each SP Board is around 4 slabs of cardboard when cut. the length-wise cardboard would be different, but still its a working plan. not very stable, but it'll keep the wine together.
cheap isnt it? not pro work but it should be goood!!!
