Hi, thanx for being my first watcher! The ones in paper I use a stencil to draw the polygons on watercolor paper and then cut them out with an Exacto knife , fold and glue. The ones in wood are cut from plywood and pine boards using a miter saw and a table saw. Thanx again. Take Care Bert

I wish I could sell them but the dollar per hour is too  low They take longer to make than anyone is willing to pay for.) Oh well. I like giving them away to friends and family.

oh. well, that's cool too! :3 
They'd make great gifts, I bet.
So, how long does one paper one usually take you (average)? 
And where did you learn/pick up on this fabulous talent?

They vary from 1 -12 hours depending on the size and complexity. I taught myself how to do it. I'm sure you could to if you wanted to.
