| Fold and Cut Designs (from which no paper is removed) | |||||||
| This
page is being used to collect information about the
history of paperfolding designs in which the paper is
first folded, then slit, then opened out or folded again,
using the slits, to produce the final design, but in
which no paper is removed from the original starting
shape. Please contact me if you know any of this
information is incorrect or if you have any other
information that should be added. Thank you. There is a separate page about Cut, Overlap and Glue Together Designs, which are often associated with the Paper Sloyd approach to paperfolding in schools. ********** How to Climb Through a Playing Card - 1716 onwards
