No images this time, will upload them soon. Today we budgeted and tested. We subbed one material for another, so we can spend the saved money on more hinges, to make it BIGGER. This will also make it heavier- and its performance may suffer, no way of knowing before we build it.
This is going to be a marathon of cutting.
The stuff doesn't cut fast, either.

The thing, whatever it ends up as, will have none of the original delicacy of the origami. Sad, but also way more kick-ass. I mean kick-ass like burn-marks and bullet-holes.
Monstrous.
Like a creature....
...one that might not move for a hundred years and then one day start to stir, and local townspeople whisper in cafes of the coming tectonic maelstrom. It wobbles, creaking, to its feet like a rusted megatron, shaking off a century of silt and debris- its flaps moving up and down, in and out, faster as it begins to shed the grogginess of its ancient hibernation...
