Sonobe variants
This album groups together variants of Sonobe unit.
Spiked Icosahedron (Checkered Sonobe)

Checkered Sonobe
A Sonobe variant derived from my Paper Airplane Sonobe.
Spiked Icosahedron (Bow-Tie Sonobe)
Spiked icosahedron, folded from my Bow-Tie Sonobe units (also independently designed by tomoko07011209 around the same time).
Bow-Tie Sonobe
This is a Sonobe variant, derived from my Paper Airplane Sonobe by changing just a few folds.

Simple Edge Unit (SEU)
Simple Edge Unit (SEU) was designed by me, and as I later learned, also independently by many other people before. It is quite a versatile edge unit with sev...
