Transporting: I use plastic bins (Rubbermaid, Tupperware, etc.) inside of a hard shell suitcase. The clothes go around the bins as extra padding.
Yes, I am that Joseph Wu. Not that it really matters. And please call me Joseph or Joe. "Mr. Wu" is my dad. :)

Anermak :
You've probably already seen them, but I have found that there are
enough CP's on Nicolas Terry's site, http://design.origami.free.fr/Diagrams/cp.htm
to keep me busy for 2 or 3 lifetimes !
Many of them, of course, are beyond my present skill level.

In other words, I believe he means more pictures of CPs that you can't find elsewhere.

OUSA Convention 2008

Post by gordigami »

Hoping that convention attendees will post CP's of exhibited models seems somewhat optimistic.
I suppose that the bottom line is to attend as many conventions , in person, as possible, ie: OUSA , BOS , Italian, German, French, South American, etc. and engage in some social networking in the evening casual folding sessions.
Probably , subscribing, annually, to the JOAS Tanteidan magazines would undoubtably turn up fresh CP's , as would purchasing as many of the Annual Tanteidan Convention books as possible .
My personal solution is to buy as many worthwhile origami books as I possibly can, after extensive research into what is available worldwide.
Unfortunately, all of these are relatively expensive solutions.

To Origamiguy:
Thanks very much for your considerate posting of display photos !
These are the first that I've seen , and are much appreciated .
There are models that I have heard about, but this is the first time to see.
By the way, could you mention what camera was used ?
You take excellent photos !
