Hi tehryanx, Thanks for your comment. We're not experts on topology, but here's what wikipedia says about "stellated octahedron"...hmmm, I think we'll just stick to origami :) "The stellated octahedron can be seen as either a polyhedron compound or a stellation: As a compound, it is constructed as the union of two tetrahedra (a tetrahedron and its dual tetrahedron)."

[@tehryanx]

You're completely right about this. I was just playing with the one I built from this tutorial when it dawned on me that this could be a stellated shape, so I looked it up and ended up on the page you just posted. Just came here to retract. This video taught me 2 cool lessons, thanks! :)

[@nerdypop3978]

THANKS I FINALLY MADE IT AFTER 30 MINUTES OF FRUSTERATION!!!!

[@saladplays626]

Nerdy Pop same

[@origamiinstructor]

Adrian, glad we could help!

[@aidanhalliwell3940]

The only confusing part was when you put the two halves together but i got it after a few tries. Overall great video.

[@RachelWho]

How do you find the volume of this thing?

[@origamiinstructor]

Thanks for sharing our channel! And, great avatar!

[@walteroppenheimer6222]

Thank you very much for the wonderful directions. I've made 3, and now I can make them from memory. A Heartfelt Thanks. Walter

[@origamiinstructor]

+walter oppenheimer , you're very welcome! When you get the chance, post some pictures of your creations in the comments on our website. Thanks!

[@archanaashok5938]

My thing ended up looking like a milk carton!! :( But still managed to do it!!! Thank you sooo much 4 sharing this video with us!! :)

[@JerryAulenbach]

The best origami modular piece of all time. I don't understand why you'd build 2 6-piece modules though. I find it much easier to add one at a time.

[@ziggyinjapan]

Your videos are clear and easy to follow. I enjoyed making this, thanks!

[@avillegas600]

I have a question,when are you going to make a Kusudama? I'm really looking forward to make one of those!

[@christennastamm6002]

You are the best! Cool, calm and collective...one thing at a time, color, rotation and count. Like yous say...there you have it!

[@christennastamm6002]

Oh...Thank You!

[@irenekovacs6115]

Perfect, clear concise directions. I've looked at several videos on how to assemble this, yours finally made sense. I like how you consider how to balance out the colors, as well.

[@GoldenFireOrigami]

Whoa cool! It is like the Stellated Octahedron by Sam Cialla except this time with modular sonobe units!

[@30_t0n]

Golden Fire Origami yeeeet

[@4espaverse]

Connecting the paper steps were a bit tricky but got it after a few mins :) nice way to impress friends and family

[@toughtater]

I had to make this for a project and this video was very helpful. Great instructions. I finished mine in the car!!

[@renalston8259]

[@crluxlux7548]

Nice, I made it! Thank you!

[@origamiinstructor]

natur200, take a look at our website (link is in the description of the video). You're sure to find something there that is meaningful to the particular 5 yr old. You can place the item in an origami box. Have fun! -Andy

[@charukhatter6687]

coool started making this one but ended up in making a cube by mistake, now gonna try again!!!

[@avillegas600]

I was thinking if you can make Kusudamas I'm really looking forward to make those!

[@origamiinstructor]

angelfaceako You're welcome! Post some pics of your origami on our website when you get a chance. Thanks!

[@pradiptabhakta8134]

i cant get the part where when you put the green paper into the pink paper

[@pg8371]

Thanks so much:)

[@thewildhuli4947]

I learned this 5-6 years ago at a camp from someone there. Ever since I have been making them at home or n the classroom. Since I usually use regular paper to fold these I have ripped so much rectangle paper into square paper. BTW if you make a multicolored one of these with 12 sheets of regular A12 paper it looks SICK

[@cesiamoralestrejo1823]

Love it!!

[@BAMFBOY1000]

Wow this is really good

[@gregbunch7011]

thanks! those things are hard to make!

[@ksal462]

origami sonobe

[@pawandhaliwal5953]

Thank uuuu so much 😀😀

[@baileyzimmer2316]

I tried but I couldn't get the first piece to go into the third piece

[@parveznaemzada3871]

Yo bro thank you for help us 😁😁😁😁😁😃😃😀😀😀😀😄😄😄

[@DizzyG]

Oh my god... I did it backwards and wasted 12 pieces of paper. I retried it, and after a total of three hours, I got it.

[@origamiinstructor]

Elias, great perseverance, congrats on finishing it!

[@tehryanx]

This is cool but I'm pretty sure it's two intersecting tetrahedra, not an octahedron. An octahedron has 8 faces but only 6 vertices. A tetrahedron has 4 vertices and if you intersect two of them it looks similar to this shape. This is like two mirrored intersecting tetrahedra that have been slightly inflated.

[@ceh963]

I need to make a present for a 5 year old What can I make ?

[@trrpin]

And identified it! this is a triakis octahedron! Exact name. Found it lol.

[@nengyang1920]

terrapin my kid came home with one so we spent an hour trying to ID it. You are definitely correct. The triangular additions to the faces threw us off. Learn something new.

[@linaboshof9990]

Great instruction !!!!! Mine came out Perfect !!!

[@user-yu4mp5ex6q]

굿!

[@courtneysmith7979]

we are doing this in school i messed up but now i got it

[@trrpin]

Madee eiiit! Thanks! :)

[@origamiinstructor]

terrapin you're welcome! And hope you enjoyed it.

[@emersonr3494]

Origami Instructions speak spanihs please

[@mannymv7338]

+Origami Instructions Thankyou so much! :D I love this, I was up till 12:30 a.m making it

[@jessicavo3602]

Can someone please tell me what is the size of the paper? Thanks! :)))

[@pawandhaliwal5953]

Ya sure ...i took 15×15

[@MrDino606]

Any square paper would work!

[@bertiegriffin3871]

does anybody know the mathematical name for this shape, i cant find it?

[@captaincuttlefish8884]

stellated octohedron

[@jensentherese1]

still working on it after 2 hours and not even close lol 😂

[@diosdadobongsarong1550]

why dont you post or record how to make the base pattern.

[@anyantwhatsoever]

It’s called a sonobe unit.

[@carlerte]

Remembering me of buckyballs ;( ...

[@jaden-cc5vp]

1:44 is what I dont get, like how the fuck does it go in like that

[@Lovely9727855]

Kewl

[@howtoorigami620]

It's actually called a Octohedron

[@billyedgar9570]

Some of the information is missing. There is nothing about how to get the modules in a more rounded shape. The part where the two halves are joined together spoils what is an otherwise good video.

[@alexwolfgaming4879]

After 45 minutes I still couldn't get it. >:.( so thanks....

[@felixpacheco4438]

I bet this guy tried 1000 times to make it well for a vid

[@mat991805beast]

shoutout

[@lexushuff1203]

This sooooooo easy

[@TheseTimez]

Cool great video although i don't think that the valley folds were nesesary

[@MrDino606]

They were, the pieces wouldn't hold together if they weren't creased like that.

[@jaiden3765]

im watching thing on myyy bbbbbdddaayyyy

[@francescocontestabile6473]

It is broken

[@royaditya27]

What

[@akashgargakash]

This is impossible

[@charizzamaetoy9814]

F

[@Lovely9727855]

It looks complicated but it really isn't complicated

[@mby5082]

Impossible, but good channel.
