Origami Lantern: 3D Printing on Paper

thingiverse

A method for 3D printing origami patterns. I am using washi paper (a Japanese fibrous paper) for its strong and flexible features. The solid plastic printed directly onto the washi creates the origami patterns that are not meant to be folded. This technique can be used to print directly on regular printer paper and drastically reduce the time spent folding difficult tessellations and high level folds.
