Re: pic: Orbit ball template
Where's the sixth piece of the ball?
Do you weave that one in after the first five are together? |

Re: pic: Orbit ball template
Oops. Found my answer in Ike's post. We still like weaving one at a time. Unless you have about five hands weaving simultaneously can get away from you.

Extra pieces of tape help out a bunch.

Re: pic: Orbit ball template
We've had 4 hands doing it, there's always at least 1 that will stay in place without something holding it.

Re: pic: Orbit ball template
Nice template! I made a ball out of paper strips today and focused on making the triangles and pentagons and it seemed easier than focusing on the over-under sequencing. But I hadn't though about laying the strips flat first! With all this extra advice, we might just get our 100+ Rolling Thunder Rochester Rally "GUS" balls done on time!

Re: pic: Orbit ball template
We just tried this method! That is very cool!
How many balls are you making? Are you hosting a pre-ship rally as well? |

We've made about 60 now, and are giving half to local teams. We have more spandex but are out of lexan now (I think we didn't account for the kerf when figuring out how much lexan to buy).
