| Comments: | Non-modular octagonal boxes like these are very challenging to make because of the many precise pre-creases required and the use of a tricky "twist-down" technique.
Scoring the pre-creases helps. Having a few extra fingers or an extra hand would help even more!
If you have already mastered Tomoko Fuse's non-modular hexagon boxes, then the octagons will be easier; many of the folds/steps for her octagons are very similar to those for her hexagons.
Some of the paper used here was a gift from my friend Marcianna. |
