How do you make a modular origami collection and not even explain the Sonobe Unit until one small paragraph on the 2nd to last page?
Very little explanation for why "bronze" or "silver" rectangles matter and steps seem to be missing from most of the modules. I got one to work that I'm content with, but that's all. I was hoping for more content like the sonobe cube to use with teen patrons, I didn't find much here. Assembly was confusing and unstable for most designs.
But maybe I'm just bad at origami
