Origami

Thorbar

I've just started getting back into Origami. I took it up as a kid after doing a project on Japan and I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed it. Anyway I'm just wondering is there anyone on boards who's into it as well? If I get my hands on a digital camera I'll take a few pictures of what I've made so far.

I had an origami book when I was younger and I learned a whole bunch which has now been reduced to starboxes. But damn, if you give me a square of paper/anything foldable I'll make ye a starbox!

I was more of a papyrus based aeronautical engineer but I was flickr-ing the other day and found this guy who's a bit of an origami master.

Not to be constantly annoying the mods...but would Arts/Crafts be a better place for this?

Canon, the photography people, used to have a fabulous origami section on their website - they probably still do. I think it's www.canon.com, well, I hope it is! I've thought about getting into it now and then - still thinking

Actually, I googled it and it's Canon.inc, and I'm not sure if they are the Canon photography people. Still it's a good site!

I have been doing it since I was a little child - I love the one a day origami calenders that you can get at the moment.
