Pocket paper kaleidoscope toy

Pocket paper kaleidoscope toy
I created this easy modular a few months ago while I was experimenting with simple modular origami.

It is a ring made out of six modules and because it's flexible structure, it is able to shift to several shapes while twisting reminding a kaleidoscope.  It is also collapsable so you can take it everywhere in your pocket.

It is very cheap and easy to make even if you are not familiar with origami. You just will need a little bit of patience to learn how to make the modules.

Here is a video of the ring in action.



And now, let's start with the instructable. Hope you like it.

Diseñé este anillo modular hace unosmeses cuando estaba experimentando con origami modular simple.
Se compone de 6 módulos y es capaz de tomar diferentes formas cuando se tuerce. Además, se puede colapsar y transportarse en el bolsillo a dondequiera que vayas.
Adicionalmente, es económico y fácil de hacer, inclusive si no estás familizarizado con el origami. Sólo se requiere una poca de paciencia para aprender a hacer el módulo.
