This is really something! I love them both. How are you attaching the ends together...especially on the poly, Polly?

I want to ROBO it.

The Ron Resch paperfold in the background is held on by the natural shape the paper curves to and the poly, purely by elbow-crease.

This is Robo'd!
I love it - it sings to me in a most delightful tuneful grunting sort of way. I haven't built up the nerve to try the ingenious justifications and registrations that you do yet so this is scored all on one side and lovingly coaxed....

oh oh oh Polly and the Robo!!!! I am so excited, I could almost squeak!

you are so right about the singing robo, especially when it makes curves... and the registration thing works very well, makes folding the plastic a whole lot easier.

Verily, a Verity masterpiece!

I am just a lucky one to be given a leg-up by experts...

what is a ROBO?

EricGjerde says:

it's the CraftROBO, made by Graphtec - a computer controlled cutting device. Graphtec makes big vinyl cutters and other commercial equipment, but they also have this handy little model that is about the size of an inkjet printer. It's not heavily marketed and totally underappreciated :)

you can output directly from Illustrator with their plugin, so it's pretty quick to just slice up anything you want whenever you feel like it!

I'm hyperventilating and barely able to type....ARMBANDS! If I've got armbands on in the studio, you know I mean business...if I'm out of the studio w/ armbands...well, watchout! Tessellated in sumptuous forms? I'm on the floor w/ envy!
And now all this talk of ROBO cutters....I've known of them but resisted. Is resistance truly futile?
Thank you for this terrific triple morning jolt.

Hehe
Well the armband thing was really just chance - he was wearing his armband anyway as a swatch - to test the scale of the fold against a body and I was only wearing the other armband as best means to get the fold to stay - a little elbow-crease pressure from the sides gives it a hand to increase its 3D-ness. Left to its own devices it flattens to a very low relief.
But maybe we've collaborated on a new craze . Your unswerving enthusiasm has caused me to put one on while I visit the library.

and yes - Resist the Robo at your peril.....
