What unit is being used here? It's not the same unit used in Five intersecting Tetrahedra, but it looks similar. It's from the book Mathematical Origami by David Mitchell, but I can't find the book anywhere online to download.

I think the unit doesn't have a name, neither the book nor his website mentions one.

Now if in return some spanish speaking anon would be so kind to translate the instructions, that would be nice.

Shame on you

I suppose you also need text besides each picture to build your lego set?

Almost every origami book has a page of two with the obvious symbols that enables you to use the international visual language of origami symbols so that you still can follow any book of any language, even if it says 怠惰な雌犬のあなたの息子、あなたをファック。

I don't need it at all, I thought it would be nice to be able to replace the captions with English for future reference.

>>532071
I don't speak either language. Never learned Portuguese at all and just a few months worth of Spanish. But I can actually read and understand like half of the text on the template, so I assumed it's Spanish. Guess my Latin skills helped me.

Well, Portuguese, Spanish and English are all European languages, very similar in many aspects, just a small comparison:

Escolha dois modulos para utilizar como modelos. (Portuguese)
Escoja dos modulos para usar como modelos. (Spanish)
Choisissez deux modules a utiliser comme modeles. (French)
Choose two modules to use as models. (English)
Wählen zwei module als verwenden modelle. (German)

My German is very bad so I'm not sure about the correct translation. English has the same roots than German but it was heavily influenced by French.

Yeah, but your example shows that German (in terms of vocabulary) is pretty different from English. While the sentence in Portuguese and Spanish is almost identical, give or take a few letters.

Ugh, this one is a pain to assemble without crumbling the long edges.

Attempted this, but neither A4 (17:22) nor A5 (11:17) proportions got step 3-4 as diagrammed. Any recommendations? I ended up doing a different dodecahedronal model in the meantime.

A4 (or smaller, A5, A6, A7, ...) is correct. The tips in 3-4 don't meet at the exact same point (almost, though), it's more important that you meet the middle line.

Alright, thanks! I'll keep that in mind. I just noticed after putting three modules together that the angles they formed looked a lot sharper than they should have.

There is just one thing I don't like about it:

It blocks too much light so the room is kind of dark, but the colored light is cool
