"No Scissors" Symbol 2.2 |
Creation 25 |
Shortly after designing my scissors, I realized that as an origami purist, it would be very fitting to have a no scissors symbol folded out of one piece of paper. I used circle packing to create the base and am very happy with the result.

On my first attempt at this model, I employed circle packing, but this ended up creating an irregular base that was very difficult to thin consistently. The main problem though, was that there was a large line going through the "x" part on the symbol where it crossed the scissors, significantly reducing the model's believability, and leading to version 2.0.
