Originally this modular needed glue, but I modified it a bit so it doesn’t need any, unfortunately that makes the origami much harder. It isn’t very sturdy when assembled since it was meant to be glued together. I used 6 square papers of 10cm. The beginning is the same as the star, but is folded a bit differently to get to the same result.

cool new vid
i made the old version but the glue was anoying thnx for the new one
wow nice Karl!
You found a smart way to assemble it without the glue.
great job.
I’ll try to make this now:-)
I remembered how I had to sink the top of the omega star and the tip of this model was exactly the opposite shape, I wouldn’t have made a video of it if I had to use glue.
thats great. Love origami, hate glue:-)
Yay made it! very loose but I made it:D
thank you!
cool thanks
actually, this is very easy for me. these units, they are also coasters, and i made some before in my spare time.
I have folded the same model using patterend / printed origami paper of 6″. In order to prevent the ‘ends’ of the folds from sticking out in the centre of each of the units, I cut out a small circluar piece from a sheet of gold foil (the size of a dime) and stuck it over the centre of each of the units. Great model!!
