How to Make a Transforming Ninja Star! (8-Pointed)

Like this Video? Check out my Fun Creations Playlist HERE:
• Origami Ninja Star Rin...
I explain in this tutorial how to create the Transforming, a.k.a. 8-pointed Paper Ninja Star or Shuriken. It is a type of Modular Origami Model in which we will interlock or join 8 smaller Modular Units (pieces) to get a larger one. This model was designed by Robert Neale.
All that is required is 8 small square sheets of paper. I am using 9cm x 9cm dimension paper I found in staples, but any Post-It notes should work fine. Smaller origami paper should work well also. However, I don't recommend using origami paper because it is thinner and flimsy, becomes wrinkled and comes apart much faster. If you want to use printer paper, that is fine (but you will wind up wasting a bit). Just make the printer paper into a square, like I do in my other origami tutorials. Then split that square into 4 pieces (fold in half both ways and cut/tear). Either that or you can use each sheet of converted printer paper as one modular unit and make a LARGE transforming ninja star! (see some of my VIDEO RESPONSES)

It's been about 10 years since I first saw this video and found your channel (I'm now a sophomore in college), I remember there was these group of boys that were making the transforming ninja stars and I wasn't someone who really fit in with anyone, so I figured since it looked so cool and I was too shy to ask if they could make me one, I would go home to try and make it (this was also my shot and making possible need friends), and that's when I stumbled on your video, it was super easy to follow! If only I had realized you were using much smaller paper! I ended up using 8 whole sheets of printer paper to make this giant one, I took it to school to see what the group's reaction would be and they were amazed at the size! They thought it was coolest thing ever, I ended up giving it to the boy since he liked it so much. Basically what I'm saying is that because of your tutorial I was noticed for a moment and maybe to many people it doesn't seem like much, but it meant so much to me in the moment. And I just wanted to thank you for all your origami videos, they brought me so much joy! Not to mention the ninja knot! I still use that knot to this very day to tie my shoes! I hope you're doing well, take care!

[@RobsWorld]

Thanks for sharing your story, happy that it was something you remember fondly and hope you are doing well also 😊

[@livinginjoy]

This video is literally my childhood. I remember spent a lot of time making this. Thank you for the memories 😌

[@yarn_addict_oz]

I love this video. My son, who is autistic, needed to make models for his uni course. He decided he wanted to do origami. Most of the videos I’d previously looked at were done so fast it was impossible for me to keep up. I then found your channel. You’ve saved my sanity and we’ve avoided another autistic meltdown, which for me are not fun. Thank you so much for your clear instructions done at a pace which makes sense.

[@Birbsters]

I remember when I first made this YEARS ago and it took me an entire day (I wasn't good at origami) and I was super happy, so I went into the bathroom to see what I looked like with it in the mirror. I throw it, and it lands in the bathtub... which was full of water... I still haven't forgiven myself.

[@HiThere-gp4gi]

this. this is pain.

[@Videos-yf7nt]

LOL 😂 I can make one of these in like 15-20 minutes

[@davidluna2955]

One more thing it’s just that whenever I try to transform it the flaps keep breaking apart. Is there any way to secure them? Otherwise will it still transform if I apply a little bit of tape?
