Last paper i bought (which was about 5 months ago) was two rolls of foil paper, and 4 sheets of "tissue-foil" from Nicholas Terry's shop.

Already used 2 of the "tissue-foil" sheets, and about 75% of one of the foil rolls. I still have all the sample papers that come free with purchases... not sure what to fold with them.

I ordered some six inch tant from paper jade after I folded a sample (from origami-shop but honestly they will be receiving ALOT of business from me soon) and I loved it, no fatigue points crisp clean folding, wonderful texture, a bit thick but a winner. I want more!

I also bought supplies for making tissue foil again sigh... because there are a few models that I want to fold that can only be done with a large sheet of foil.

5 sheets of Ogami, hand made especially for wet-folding. Once I get done with all the CenterFold stuff I plan to dig in.

A whole bunch of the really amazing origami-shop tissue foil. I found some of the larger stuff at a local art supply store but I exhausted their supply. Finding more of it online was super awesome.

Purchased at CenterFold. Least I could do, since I was the one who gave them the idea in the first place. Robert made a bull moose and cicada nymph out of the stuff, and they were gorgeous! The paper makers should have their site up soon. Well worth the cost, I doubt I'll ever use tissue foil or anything else again.

Hey Mike, is it the thin stuff, the thick stuff, or something in between? Or will there be a range? Jon gave me a sheet of something in the middle I think.
