Geometric Vase 1.1
At CenterFold 2024, I taught my Geometric Vase. Jim Weir came up with a better way to lock the edges, resulting in the version of the model presented here. The lock holds better, but the biggest improvement is in the folding sequence. The original was quite nice to fold until you arrived at the last side of the vase, where you had to go into lots of trouble to close the ring of locks. This step was also hard to show in the workshop. In version 1.1, each of the locks is more independent of others, making it easier to close, and the locking step is much easier to teach. It’>s great to see others improve upon my design, to the benefit of all folders.
Note that the model looks quite interesting when seen from below (or placed upside-down).
