"Greeting Ornament" made of foldable dodecahedron

Children's Science January 2021 issue "Interesting Craft Development Site Kodomonokagaku Research Institute" is "Greeting ornament made with folding dodecahedron". A polyhedron is created using package design technology.

The point this time is, "If you assemble it, it should be a regular dodecahedron."

That's what it means.

Pop-up picture books, candy boxes,

You can find it in tool boxes sold at home centers.

It's a "folding method".

Reduce the size of the product to be mailed and delivered to a store, etc.

Keep shipping costs as low as possible

I put it in the size of the book decided no matter what

It is a small ingenuity that can be seen in industrial products.

This is before assembly.

It's going to be a taira, so I'm going to use it conveniently and work.

Continuing from this magazine, if you think about how to use it ...

・Paint the phosphorescent spray and decorate the tree

・Photosensitive paper Create and paste cool Nikko photo works

・Apply bond to the entire surface and attach beads to decorate

・Put a calendar in small letters for 12 months

・Draw a pattern like Escher

・Draw and send a congratulatory picture as a New Year's card

・Add your favorite photos to create a polyhedral album

・Make a tent out of cardboard that is large enough to accommodate a person.

It seems that there are various

Make foldable tetrahedrons, cubes, octahedrons, icosahedrons, etc.

Decorating like a specimen and being enchanted

You might be a polyhedron fan! ?

 

Bye now for today.
