Zing Origami

Origami artist John Szinger shows how to fold 12 all original models, from a single square of paper, in his first book "Zing Origami". John has diagrammed models ranging in difficulty from simple to complex that use alternate geometries, one-sixth and one-fifth, and polar or rotational-based symmetries. His innovative models included are Adirondack Canoe, Adirondack Chair, Octopus, Loon, Brown Bear, Butterfly, Hot Air Balloon, Asian Elephant II, Baluchitherium, Lizard, Snapping Turtle, and Fivefold Rose. These models can be folded from a single square, most from a six- or ten-inch sheet.  Although they can be made from foil or wet-folded to bring out the sculptural aspects, it isn’t necessary. Zing Origami is especially formatted for ereader devices.
