it looks like a modular origami, have you checked in books?

[izzybizzywiz]

erm, no. because i've never tried origami before, i just came across you guys in my huge search of the internet and thought, you might know.
so the books, how might i find it in "the book"?
thanks

It looks like it needs cuts, so I don't think it really is "origami"...
But Anna has made a working carousel, unless I'm mistaken.

Thank goodness for google

i'll have a look at the working origami carousel, if i can.
and i've looked at that website, bovine designs, i emailed the women and asked her how to make it, and there's a formula, it involves everything i've ever seen in maths. i was just wondering if there was an easier way to make it.

Well, the working carousel can be seen here, but it's a real carousel and no pop-up book: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_BhOkdTyCM

For the Pop-up Carousel you should read the previous 3 articles as well since they describe exactly how it was built: http://www3.sympatico.ca/bovine.designs/articles.html
