Folding strip book

Having stumbled across the incredible work of printmaker/paper sculptor Tatania Potts, I couldn't resist trying out this structure.

For my trial run I cut a strip (400 mm x 80 mm) from an A3 sheet of computer paper.  My lino block (50 mm square) was printed diagonally, resulting in five closely spaced images.  A scrap of paste paper was glued to each end to serve as a cover.  




Then, a first for me, trying to video the opening one-handed!

    1. Thanks Pat. It was a bit of a fast-paced demo!
