How to Make a Mini MAGIC BALL (Dragon's Egg) | Easiest Method

• Origami Ninja Star Rin...
In this tutorial for the Origami Mini Magic Ball (sometimes called the Dragon Egg or Dragon's Egg because of the cool exterior look), I explain the easiest way I know how to make or fold it - (btw if you have UltraHD or ability for 4K watch it in super high quality!).
This is an awesome Origami Action Toy that squishes, transforms, and is otherwise just fun to play with and is great for relieving stress!
EVEN SO, I classify this model as a High Intermediate/Low Advanced model because of the repetitive amount of folds and attention to details, not because of its difficulty. It is tedious (time consuming) so try it when you have free time set aside.
For this model, we're going to use a 1:2 proportion/ratio paper. I will be using an 8.5x11" printer sheet, but you can use pretty much any kind of paper. Tape WILL be necessary for this model. Though there are methods for joining the ends together without it, I found it much simpler to learn this way first.
This is one of the most challenging video tutorials I've ever worked on, taking weeks to plan out and edit, reviewing 10s (if not 100s) of times and just making sure the quality was top notch. In that case, I humbly request that you appreciate the time went into making this project and THUMBS UP if you enjoyed, Comment- (and if you can find those Secret Subtitles ;-), share, and SUBSCRIBE. Thank to you all for the continued support! Love you all and hope you enjoy it!

Information:
The Mini Magic Ball is based from the classic Water Bomb (balloon) base and was originally designed by Yuri and Katrin Shumakov, so thanks to them for letting me make this tutorial. They do have other designs based on the Magic Ball in their book, which you can find on Oriland.com, so check it out if you'd like to know more!

Rob, I have been watching you since elementary and now I'm in college. I'm happy you still make videos because in this world we live in we need some honest, funny, & less click-baity content for once, lol.

[@joshuavo5644]

Peezy watched since I was 6 now im going to highschool 😃

This is how much valley folds rob did 👇🏻

[@winniechen7377]

I’m sure he made WAYYY more than 69 valley folds, don’t even try like begging

[@giraffeman326]

[@Breacher456]

1:19 the green mug next to the projector disappears. 5:22 that’s the sound of a zipper 6:49 We created 485 squares/boxes 13:00 You made 68 precreases 32:07 Man, that Unidentified Flying Origami Object was moving quite fast XD

[@RobsWorld]

Arnav Sinha Roy nice job dude.. but how did you get 485? I was thinking of a different number but also knew there are cubes within cubes and such. Can you explain?

[@Breacher456]

Rob's World Well Rob, you divided your paper into two sides (therefore 2 squares with dimensions of 8x8) and then you had all of the smallest squares (I call them 1x1s and there were 168 of them). But then I began to count all the squares with dimensions of 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 5x5, 6x6 and 7x7. I added all my results and I got 485. I hope that explains it all. What number were you thinking of?

[@RobsWorld]

You did get most of them correct, so you know what I will pin it for a bit just for you watching through and trying! Great job man :-) But next time, I will say that no editing of comments will be allowed (though I may have the original somewhere)! :-P

[@Breacher456]

Rob's World alright, gotcha.

[@RobsWorld]

I see I knew someone would think of of doing the “squares within squares” method. I got 128 but props to you for that. Is your comment pinned for some reason it doesnt looked pinned on my browser

[@debaratichakraborty4830]

I love you rob

[@aurorix385]

Can’t do the tape :(

[@RobsWorld]

Hey guys, so it’s finally out... my own version of the mini magic Ball (in 4K!). Thanks to All who commented on my last video. There are either 3, 4, 5, or 6 “secret subtitles”. Please show support on this video also by commenting and Giving a Thumbs Up! Guess one question and I’ll thumbs up your video and may even love it and pick it for my “choice comment”. If you get 4 or more, I will PIN YOUR COMMENT, respond to you and even give a shout out in the next video! Thanks for watching.👍🏻

[@alejandro04abg]

It sounded like a zipper or maybe ripping paper. 128 boxes.

[@sergiovillegas9252]

Hey rob where do you buy your paper?

[@danielnam2183]

Rob's World your tutorial was way WAY to hard

[@RobsWorld]

This is not a beginner model and I made it as easy as I could. Like I said, try watching it first then doing it. I’d also recommend trying the origami Rose and Kaleidoscope first

[@30_t0n]

Rob's World what does 4K mean? My older brother and I don't know.

[@vide0lover]

Not gonna lie. the tape had me in trouble for a bit but I got it and it looks awesome! could totally be better but not bad for my first one. drawing the lies and having bigger models to view was BIG help. You explained it perfectly!

[@RobsWorld]

Thanks to all you guys for the support! I know this isn’t like my usual tutorials but the magic ball contains many repetitive folds. Therefore try watching it in parts and then pause the video and try it yourself. That OR you can now change the SPEED settings on KZbin. Either way I DO NOT recommend you try to follow along. You’ll find it’s not that hard once you practice and do it a few times (took me about 4 or 5). Thanks again and see you soon

[@cookingwithsharon390]

I made it I love Your videos⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@RobsWorld]

RosieRox86 Awesome! Great job, any parts you had trouble with or didn’t like?

[@cookingwithsharon390]

Rob's World no

[@kamitsu3412]

That's really cool I just made it and a little bit troubles but I fixed it

[@parthv8465]

Rob's World hi. Thanks for replying to my comment earlier I am a big fan. I really need help. I always struggle with the X's and Y's around the 15 minute mark. Can you help?

[@omibear2804]

Rob! I've tried making this 7 years ago and I literally couldn't find an in depth and easy to follow tutorial !! Thank you so much!! This video is the best!!

[@Rayan-ji4me]

Yes! yes! yes! :) I finally can make the mini magic Ball , without your help I can't make the mini magic Ball forever thanks Rob 😊😁😀😅🙂☺

[@encorey2011]

1:18 I smashed like button and computer mouse has been broken!

[@waldalwahsh7833]

Man, that Unidentified Flying Origami Object was moving quite fast about the speed of light across the universe XD

[@mulberrialeaferru]

I've tried several tutorials but this is the only one I've suceeded in. A very nice tutorial 👍

[@bizzuard]

Dear Rob, I had a blast making this! Took some time to tape it, but all in the time worth it! I was wondering if you could make a tutorial for the original one. Please, it would be awesome!

[@pulkitmohta8964]

Hey Rob! So I was wondering about giving you a challenge. If folding the mini magic ball requires a 8x16 grid, a bigger version of the magic ball requires a 16x32 grid, can you go higher up and make the ultra magic ball with 32x64 grid? I bet its gonna be awesome to play with and capable of doing other stuff as well. So, are you up for the challenge?

[@LilSai0841]

He needs to do this

[@AlanWang-u7i]

Great idea

[@Hotspot99.2]

After a month of trying I FINALLY GOT IT!!! Thanks rob for this tutorial

[@smaransure2234]

5 years later after being able to make this, lol nostalgia

[@daud_.privvvvv]

Not even joking i try almost 20 times and now i finally made its too satisfya ✌️

[@ishika_sa]

Such an underrated video. Everything is explained in detail, like even teachers don't elaborate maths the way u have demonstrated the origami ball😭😭 because of u, i did it it less then 1 hour lol. Thank you! (Hope this video reaches 1 million soon)

[@corrot]

i accidentally put the tape on the wrong side. OOF

[@imthetypo]

7:38 Nothin here to see ppl I’m just saving this to myself :P

[@happyguy958]

🐶🐱it’s hard but it looks cool

[@alexandrapossum71]

"make your folds nice and clean" me: "i dont think i will" me struggling 20 mins later: this is fine (:

[@LeremyJenkins]

Underrated comment😂

[@emilieparker2889]

I wanna do this soooooo badly but its too hard😢😢😢

[@legendarylikebot8465]

Emilie Parker try going slower and listen carefully. Also, you need a considerable amount of experience, and having knowledge of basic folds and bases, like the waterbomb base and the reverse fold

[@hisokaschild3488]

Dear Robert,I have been watching your channel for a very long time.I appreciate you for teaching me how to make a paper popper all the way to this squishy ball.Thank you for making your channel!Appreciate it man!

[@jangozzz6125]

Thank you, Rob!! You explained every step so well, and I finally made this hard project!

[@amethyst1826]

Was anyone else thinking it reminded them of light shades their mums/grandparents used to have? Yeah, my attention span got lost somewhere near 32.08 when it became quite clear to me that I'd never have the patience to make one of these, but I could play with one for ever such a long time!! 🤣🤣

[@vidur178]

After years of trying to make this, I finally made it! I’m so glad to make it

[@balagangadhar2594]

Rob I will say one thing I had made in 2016 by watching jo nakashima he had made in 17th minutes you had did in 32 minutes but your boomerang is super rob'world , jeremy shafer and origami with jo nakashima this three are origami masters

[@maximusjeng7164]

It was actually pretty hard, but I finished it. Rob, you and Jeremy Shafer are my favourite origami teachers. I started doing like easy origami when I was 5 and now I can make harder and more complicated models. Thank you Rob!!!!!!!!!

[@rsalvagno3995]

Hey Rob! I was wondering if you have made a video from the regular magic ball. If haven't I would love to learn it. Also I started watching you since I was 5 and now I'm 9 years old. If there is a video to make the regular magic ball, please reply the link. Stay safe!

[@aversilf]

Hey rob I have been your viewer since 10 years and I'm 16 now I still remember your rubiks cube vids and your ninja star vids. Thank you for this wonderful decade I feel very great when I make so.e of your projects you have the most simplified tutorials on the net . Love the vids keep it up

[@tring7112]

Wow, I was looking for a video on how to do an origami peacock tail but I couldn't find one so I just clicked on this instead. I also couldn't find any videos on how to make an origami fan? This one looks super cool and is definitely worth taking an hour on instead of making some hasty folds to make a mediocre fan capable of doing the exactly same thing. (I do love these videos though, I just a naturallu sarcastic person.)

[@scarletmatychuk4088]

This is a fantastic tutorial. I subscribed! I love everything about it! You drew lines and dots on it, you explained super well, and you did it at a pace that I could follow! 10/10 my dude! Loved it!
