Paper Accordions from Scratch (no template)
Please turn on Closed Captions (CC) before watching.
Hello, this is a tutorial for making paper accordions (uniform and graduated) from scratch. The tools you need to draw out your own accordion are a pencil, a ruler, and a compass. Please keep in mind that this is a self-made method from my own experimentation, so feel free to point out any errors or suggestions in the comments!
Additional Notes:
- The more accurate the drawing is, the easier the accordion is to fold. This applies primarily for all the angles.
- When you finish folding your accordion, you may notice there is some resistance to attaching the two ends. However, the more you flatten down on the accordion, the easier it is for the two ends to line up.
- For the graduated accordion, if you are using printer paper as I am, you may notice there are certain limits to how large your accordion may be, depending on the starting angle division. Using larger sheets of paper, or attaching multiple sheets of printer paper together may be helpful to achieving your desired accordion.
Thank you for stopping by, and once again, please share your thoughts in the comments!

If you want to make each "tick" exactly equal to one second, you can use the pendulum formula to determine its length.

Recently, I made a cardboard sine wave automaton. It was a fun project, but I ran into the most trouble around coordinating the conveyor belt and mechanism.

Although, if you plan to replicate this project, I would probably suggest adding more teeth to the gears to improve ...

    Have you ever watched Tim Burton's 9? Do you know if it's possible to make an aperture where the blades are able to move in such a way that the iris can move, rather than staying centered? I think it would be cool to make a character whose eyes were apertures and could move like the characters in that movie.

    • @cressyism
      @cressyism 4 місяці тому

      I've never watched 9 before, but I do enjoy Tim Burton's work, and I thought the trailer was pretty cool. I see what you mean by the eyes moving, and while I'm not exactly sure how to do that, I've seen some pretty cool puppetry mechanisms before than manage a similar motion with the head or eyes. If you were to combine the iris mechanism with whatever the puppets use, I'm sure that'd be one way to copy that effect.

      Usually the more precise the measurements, the better chance it has of working. This design of a pendulum clock mechanism was my first, and I believe there are many parts that could be improved, so go for whatever works best for you.
