Comparison of tetrahedra, cubes, and octahedra folded from SEU units from 2:1 paper (top row) and square paper (Sonobe-like SEU, bottom row) — Images are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License

This model (last in top row) is shown compared to other models folded from SEU units made from 2:1 and square paper (top and bottom row, respectively). Note that the SEU Sonobe units are so wide the octahedron folded from them automatically becomes a spiked version.
