okay. do you know where the cheapest place to buy methyl cellulose is?

[TheRealChris]

so there's no MC shop in front of your computer?

It looked like Anna's answer was correct, but I read the question as asking what other models is Tant good for... I'm not very knowledgeable about the different types of paper and weights, so I didn't offer an opinion... not that lack of knowledge stops me.

As far as MC, the cheapest place is an old drugstore that sells you a small amount from the back. Next, you can try paint stores and Wallpaper stores. Finally, depending on where you live, there are various online shops. You'll have to search for the different suggestions from previous posts.

Usually, you may have to buy a pound of powder, which costs about $15USD. Probably a lot more than you need, because a tablespoon is plenty for a few models.

another off topic question- how do you make a website? i want to post diagrams on the internet but i dont want to post them on my flickr for the fear of plagurizers.

Ha, that's a rather large question you got there, origamifreak!

To put it in simple terms, you'll need to learn at least 2 languages (HTML & CSS) for a standards-compliant site, and find a webhost. If you'd like a standalone domain name (eg. www.lookatme.com) you'll need to shell out some dough. A reliable, well featured plan (hosting + domain name) can cost ~$100 (or maybe a little less) a year. If you're not worried about a special domain name, you can use a free hosting site, such as http://www.000webhost.com/.

There are alternatives to building a website to just host your crease patterns. Look at http://www.filesavr.com/

A third option, if the only thing you want to do is protect crease patterns from plagiarism, is to add a watermark. Just add a semi-transparent copyright all over the thing.

Or, you could just post a link on the forum to the PDF diagrams, and put your name in them, along with a copyright symbol.

model name- icarus
creator- hojyo takashi
folder- me
notes- ive heard people say that this model got extremely thick. after folding it from 10- inch kami, i found it to be too thin.

Maintaining a Web page requires time and money. But if you have an Internet account (which is how to can read this forum) then your Internet Service Provider (ISP) may give you space for a Web site for free.

If you just post the pictures with no organization that is simple, but not easy to add to. I keep a Web site, because I like to do a little programming that flickr won't let me do on my own.

However, if you have some photo-editing software, then I believe that the easiest solution is to put your name or watermark on the photos, then post them on flickr.
