Waterbomb Modular Instructions

30 units
1. Fold in half. 2. flip over and fold bottom edge to center, same on top. 3. What it should look like.
4. Fold quarter fold to center repeat on top 5. Vertical view. 6. Side view.
7, 8. Fold bottom edge to right edge and then bottom edge to left edge. 9. Collapse to a waterbomb. Repeat on other side.
10. Fold in half to the smooth sides of the two waterbombs meet. Refer to picture 11. that is the final unit
I recommend the 12 or 30 unit first as they are easier to assemble. Refer to picks for connections at each vertex. The twelve unit is functionally a cube and the 30 unit a dodecahedron.

I made it today, it’s a very nice model! Thanks for the diagrams!
Such a simple one, yet an amazing structure… So sturdy, it even bounces on my table when I drop it! XD
I can’t wait to try the fullerene version! ^_^
How do you put the pieces together to form the final shape
