Jacob's Origami

The main purpose of this page is to serve as a gallery of origami shapes that I have designed and folded over time.

Wow! This page was looking pretty cruddy. I'm afraid I've been neglecting this page for about a year, having lost my camera and not doing a lot of folding. I noticed today though that there were a lot of things broken on the site. I've corrected any errors I've seen though, and if you spot any, please drop me an e-mail and I'll fix 'em up.

Fish Mobile

Fish Mobile

This is a disappointingly poor photograph of a mobile I made for my newborn niece when my sister and her husband brought her into the world a bit more than a year ago. The mobile itself is actually quite lovely. I ran into one difficulty though, in that I live in Canada and they live in Korea. Mobiles are difficult to transport for even short distances, so I needed to build this one in such a way that it could be easily disassembled, packaged, shipped, and assembled. I'm quite pleased with the design I used on this one. Of course, assembly means instructions are required, so I wrote the instructions into an HTML document and posted it here.
