Origami #shorts video showing how to fold the Spring-loaded origami Bear Trap that snaps shut when you touch it! For the full-length tutorial click here youtu.be/9A-Uj9tmDkg.
For another simple origami Bear Trap check out this tutorial: youtu.be/K7-7GSJ5K5U This Bear Trap has more teeth, looks and acts more like a real bear trap and it can get triggered with lighter pressing. With a few more folds you can add eyes to turn this model into a scary-looking alligator frog that talks when you squeeze the sides.

![🛑 Origami Swirly Octagon Flicker 🛑
[Rather Simple] How to fold a Swirly Octagonal Flicker that flies far. For the origami shorts version click here: https://youtube.com/shorts/4zvEFApaM9M
This Swirly Octagon Flicker was designed and shown to me by member Jack during the August 2023 Eastern Hemisphere Members Livestream. Its such a basic form that Im pretty sure it has been independently discovered by origami artists in the past, such as Tomoko Fuse who specializes in these kinds of twist folds. Its so familiar, I might have even done it myself! While teaching it to me during the livestream, Jack had some difficulty conveying how to complete the last step, so on the spot, I figured out a much easier, cleaner way of finishing the model. My way of finishing it has probably also been done by some artist in the past, but Ive looked online and could not find either Jacks model nor my closure. If anyone knows who originally discovered this form, please let me know and I will at least credit them with prior independent discovery.

![Origami Clic Clac 🌷 Fidget Toy 🧁 designed by Paolo Bascetta 🌺
[Low Intermediate] How to fold Clic Clac, an amazing Fidget Toy designed by Paolo Bascetta. It transforms from a stellated octahedron into a 2X1X1 box, and when you squeeze the box it transforms into yet another 2X2X1 box. Then you can make it go back and forth between the two boxes and it makes the clic-clac sound. You can also flatten it into a 2-D square and it will spin nicely on a table.
Paolo Bascetta was so kind to give me permission to teach this model on my channel. To see more of Paolos amazing and innovative origami, check out his website:

![Origami Tutorial: 3D Standing Seagull
[Low Intermediate] How to fold a realistic origami 3D Standing Seagull that talks from one square no Cutting or taping. I embarked on designing this model while walk along Stinson Beach (CA) and seeing all the seagulls standing around and seeing them fly up in the air all at once. The model evolved over about 30 tries from practically a stick figure, to a full-bodied relatively realistic looking seagull. I also designed a flapping seagull that you can learn how to fold here: https://youtu.be/KA_hTJFt4NI
I showed this model at one of my birthday party gigs and I asked the kids to guess what it was. Several kids thought it was either a chicken or a duck. So, alternately, I guess we can also present it as a chicken or duck, or even just origami bird!
