Box pleating |
| The discovery of box pleating was a real revolution. This technique, credited for the first time during the creation of the Mooser train, makes it possible to build as many appendices as necessary, sizes and arrangements of any kind, with a single sheet of paper, without cutting. The basic principle is the use of series of valley-mountain folds which make it possible to form a point. For example, to get a range, simply create a succession of valley folds then mountain parallel to an edge of a sheet, usually equidistant. The more folds you make, the slimmer the fan will be. Box pleating is usually based on an orthogonal grid. The folds are then made with diagonal folds that bring the horizontal or vertical folds closer to each other. You will find below some steps of folding hedgehog of Yudai Imai . This is a true case study of box pleating, which is based on a 32x32 grid. Box pleating has become an essential tool for modern paper folding. Many creators use it almost systematically to create models of great complexity. Enjoy the few photos that accompany this text! |
