Folds

I folded this model quite a long time ago, but never found a suitable method of backlighting it, until now. I particularly like the effect that backlighting the model gives. By placing a sheet of glass over the model (thus flattening it), I was able to get more defined colour changes, but decided that I preferred the softer lighting. It's folded from one square of orange kami, measuring 30cm. The overall model measures 15cm, side to side. To date, this is the most levels that I've managed to fold on an Hydrangea.

This model was a test fold, before I folded Infinity in a [nicer paper](https://www.ezorigami.com/folds/8-stage-infinity-79ea). It seemed a shame not to share it, especially as I was able to fold 10 stages. It's folded from 80 squares of green kami. Paper for the largest stage measures 150mm, and paper for the tenth stage measures just 13.52mm! The overall model measures 300mm between points.

Folded from a 6" (15cm) square sheet of kami. Diagrams can be found in my new book, [Origami Made EZ](https://amzn.to/4cfMgLL) (affiliate link).

This is a 30-unit version of the traditional [Pinwheel Cube](https://www.ezorigami.com/designs/pinwheel-cube-f56a). The unit is almost identical, with the exception of one additional, diagonal valley fold through the centre of the square face.
