A4 is a paper size (not a type). It is the standard size for copy paper in many countries. But US and some other countries have a different standard ("letter size"), so check the measurements of your paper
I MADE IT!!!!! Finally! It's so satisfying even if the result wasn't that beautiful but it still works perfectly. The first time I tried it was years ago and gave up at the end. Today I decided to try it again and finally grasp the concept... Awesome tutorial as always *thumbs up*
Dude, I tried to make it and didn't have A4, so I looked up how to make a piece of A4 from letter, and completely failed, then came back to it some 9 years later and now its like, oh gee that wasn't too bad XD
I remember when I watched this for the first time, probably when it came out cause I was like 12 and thought it looked awesome and I struggled a lot doing those diagonal marks all over the paper but I did. Then I did the bottom swirl and tried the second one but I couldn't and cried and thought I was dumb and too young to be able to do this. Seven years later I thought about this spring paper and remembered how hard it was that I've never finished it. And said "well, maybe now that I'm more skilled than when I was 12 I should try and finish it". Now I'm 19 and oh boy, what a nightmare. I couldn't even do the second row of the diagonal marks. I crumpled the paper, went bed and cried just like when i was 12.
Bernardo Flores well I’m lucky to have learned origami very young cause it is great for selling origami and just having it around just a tip it will be hard at times so take small breaks and remember to know that all that stress is gone and you can be proud of your work
There was a video from another guy who showed an easy method to do the diagonal foldings,, it was very easy after that. Can't remember the name of the video or the channel, but if i find it ill link it here
I can't compliment you enough for being so wise and considerate enough to leave out an obtrusive background music. Why do so many people insist on adding atrocious audio tracks to their videos? Thank you, sir, for not doing so. I enjoyed your video very, very much.
@@juanbomfim22 i did it a month ago, maybe try easier pieces with intricate folds like these just to practice maybe then you’ll be able to do this one-
if you use half of a square, the circles formed when you collapse will not be complete. But it will be easier to collapse, so it can be a good way to learn how to make it
Try refolding your creases after folding and making them more stronger which will make your twisting part easier to do as the paper will come to the place its supposed to be perfectly :)
It has been about 4 ish years since this video was posted. I remember from day one attempting this model and failing again and again. Today is May 23, 2017 and I am so happy to say I finally made it. After so many failed attempts it worked out! So I know people can do this!!! Good luck everyone!! :) it's possible haha
this is beautiful, the 'twisting/crushing' motion is very off putting (feels like you're destroying the many minutes you've put in) but once you get on with the motion it just slides into place.. Amazing design
OTHER PAPER SIZES You can do some math to make sure it will work: Remember that 'D' is the MINIMUM number of lengthwise divisions, 'L' and 'W' is the length and width of your paper, And assuming you make ~16 or more widthwise divisions: D = πL/W But, to make sure you have some extra wrap over (to avoid lengthwise gap), use this : D = 3.5×(L/W) Or more accurately (more complex) D = (2π+∅)L/2W , where ∅ is the wrap over angle in radians. FOLDING ACCURACY: If you're getting collisions at the centre, start over with accurate creases. (And maybe a thinner paper) If you reduce the widthwise divs, it'll look less circular, same if you increase the lengthwise divs too much above 'D'. To get a longer spring, use a longer paper. To get a more circular spring (v. hard to fold), increase widthwise divs. The lengthwise divisions get converted to an '×' in the spring: ×××××××× For any (general) spring(geeky): D = (L/W)×n×tan((2π+∅)/2n) where 'n' is the no. of widthwise divs. Cheers!
This was the first one I rage-quit. I spent about 40 minutes very, very carefully trying to do the first "twisting" step, gradually crumpling the paper more and more, then my hands just spontaneously jammed together and ripped the thing apart. Very satisfying. Nice model - I may try again, but I hope not for a while.
I finished it in my third attempt. It is not prefect but it looks okay I guess. It is time-consuming but not difficult. Tip: If you take your time and make your folds precisely, then rotating the paper gets easier. Don't rush.
@@jonakashima OMG you responded! I've been watching your tutorial since I was 8, so I feel really honored. Again, thank you so much for your tutorials.
*Do not use normal A4 printing/copy paper* I can say that I tried 3 times with normal A4 printing/copy paper, and it _did not work even once_. However, when I tried slightly stiffer paper that was more like actual origami paper, it _worked the first time_.
PVTheChosenOne The paper I used in the video is standard copy paper. Maybe there are better options, but I think copy paper is ok (I haven't tried other types of paper)
Jo Nakashima Oh, ok. While using normal copy paper may be possible, I have found that much less skill is required when using more stiff paper, as it doesn't get crumpled as easily, which helps a great deal when doing the complex twisting step. One more thing - are you going to be doing any more dynamic models (ones like the fireworks, spring and jacob's ladder) in the near future?
Having made a fair number of these I would advise that you can fold the diagonals in mid-air (without a flat surface) by pinching both corners, so pre-folding the grid is enough to complete the model without needing a desk (i.e. on the bus)
okay so one of the subtle nuances of your folding is that the fingers on the inside are pulling up as the fingers on the outside are collapsing along folds . Creating that twist that only becomes centerd after the tube comes complete circle
This will be one of my absolute fave origami. I been doing this for 5 years. Can't say I have mastered it but it got better. It is my way of wasting time on a boring class. Just saying.
Jo Nakashima - Origami Tutorials ok I didn't expect to you reply to this comment so quickly I didn't even think you read comments on such old videos lol
My first try was in 2013 when i was 11 years old. At that time, i made it a couple of times and failed. I finally made it after a long time today. It's very satisfying ^^ 2021.05.25 01:58
hey guys my spring into action works! But remember guys this origami is HARD. So the tricky part of the spring into action is twisting it . Guys make a five nights at Freddy's 4 origami!
It is fabulous.it is easy but hard.the thing is v need to have patience.i have tried it 10+times but I didn't get it.but I got it today I am really very very happy.thank u for this Good origami stuff !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the tutorial for this Jo, I've been wanted to fold this for years and kept putting it off. The diagrams that I've seen show a crease pattern and then say collapse, so this is really helpful. After the first spiral, I really struggled with the second, but then it got a little easier afterwards... I think I need to practise this a few times! Out of interest, is the ratio of the paper important to the final model? I've worked it out to be approximately 1:1.88.
I finally made it!!!! I tried it 3 times but failed.....the fourth time, i succeed!!!! Omg im so happy...i watched other videos but they are confusing...this video is the best. Tnx Jo Nakashima
Damn right, every single time. I have been creating this origami for over the past 5 years every boring class and when someone borrowed it, it would not comeback until one will come to me and said 'can I have this?, I saw it from ....' feels nice tho, until they ruined it.
This took me one hour and I made it but I'm sleepy -.- can u make any shorter I use Jeremy shafers one and it came out nicely it took just 20min for me
Ok what I did was like make my folds really sharp and good so at the end I could just spin it around to make the spiral... It didn't work -_-. Now I have a crumpled spring into action. FFFFFUUUUUU
dude this is easier than the magic ball.. it's cooler too. I tried the magic ball like 10 times n never got it. I tried this only 2 and KABOOM I got it. also the way u taught was gr8

OTHER PAPER SIZES
You can do some math to make sure it will work:
Remember that
'D' is the MINIMUM number of lengthwise divisions,
'L' and 'W' is the length and width of your paper,
And assuming you make ~16 or more widthwise divisions:
D = πL/W
But, to make sure you have some extra wrap over (to avoid lengthwise gap), use this :
D = 3.5×(L/W)
Or more accurately (more complex)
D = (2π+∅)L/2W , where ∅ is the wrap over angle in radians.
FOLDING ACCURACY: If you're getting collisions at the centre, start over with accurate creases. (And maybe a thinner paper)
If you reduce the widthwise divs, it'll look less circular, same if you increase the lengthwise divs too much above 'D'.
To get a longer spring, use a longer paper. To get a more circular spring (v. hard to fold), increase widthwise divs.
The lengthwise divisions get converted to an '×' in the spring: ××××××××
For any (general) spring(geeky):
D = (L/W)×n×tan((2π+∅)/2n)
where 'n' is the no. of widthwise divs.
Cheers!
That looks complicated!

Thuuuuuuuuiiiiiii
Thank you god for joe nakashima
the most epic model i have ever made!!
To fold a model that collapses into an octagon, would your paper need to be divided vertically into ninths? Does each rectangle have a ratio of 1:4?
Shh! And do what Nakashima-senpai does :D

what is the difference between a4 paper and copy paper
First time trying it. The proportions are kind of funky, but it still works.
This reminds me of the origami DNA made by Easy Origami. Super cool!
This is some what easy.. But it takes *SO LONG*
it's so tedious, but for a good price!!! it's so cool how the paper can do that
That's a very difficult origami. tried it several years ago when i first started origami. it's easy to get confused. ill try it again some day.
***** i've tried lots of times for 5 years :'(
nam nguyen OHHHH my gosh XD I'm sooooo sorry
sorry for what?? :v
Partly that you were unsuccessful and partly because I know I'm gonna waste paper by not making this origami correctly XD
the tutorial in my book is not so clearly
i'm gonna try this again
It is fabulous.it is easy but hard.the thing is v need to have patience.i have tried it 10+times but I didn't get it.but I got it today I am really very very happy.thank u for this Good origami stuff !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What sort of mathematics do you need to use or dimension do you need to live in.... to fold paper along a curved line??? I am tired of folding paper along straight lines.
Is it possible that I can make this with smaller rectangular paper so that I can have smaller twists ?
