Yesterday I made a hexaflexagon!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOooohhoooooo!!!
So, I actually did all the measurements, cutting, folding, spiralling . . . at the end there was something odd, two little extra [scalene] triangles, and I had no idea what it was, so my dad helped me solve that (we cut them both off in the end).
BUT STILL!!! WHOOPEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee......
Anyway!! I'm really excited. I can't wait for my hexaflexastardom. I could make so many of them - like in Vi Hart's hexaflexagon video (I think it's the second): in your wallet, spilling out of your pocket, stuck between the couch cushions, scattered in your room, PLASTERED on your computer screen . . .
Well, not really, of course. That's a big exaggeration.
NOW I have to keep on practicing . . . then I can DECORATE!!! Just like Vi Hart.
Oh sorr . . . don't know who Vi Hart is? Well . . . please stand by!!!
P.S. If anyone tells you you need a compass to make ANY hexaflexagon, they are LYING to you!
yes, I agree. no compass needed. Did you follow the instructions that I sent you? Cuz that's how I finally figured it out!
