Re: Tapecraft

Neat.  The next one (for me at least) was also pretty cool.

Re: Tapecraft

Open dodecahedron - two faces are open, and the remaining ten are "3M ESR (Enhanced Specular Reflector) Film", a film design for extremely efficient reflection.

And a twisty ornament to take advantage of that reflectivity:

Re: Tapecraft

Same as the last one, but this time I colored the frame black, and used some theater gels generously donated by xoxoxoBruce instead of the reflective film.

Re: Tapecraft

It came out really well.  What size is that?  are those taped joints the width of regular tape, like half an inch?

Re: Tapecraft

The strips are narrower; two together are about half the width of wide scotch tape.  The whole thing is about softball sized.
