192 index cards??  That's a lot and I can imagine level 2 and above would have more than this.
Btw - thanks for sharing your origami experiences.  |
It took me a few hours to make it. Of course, I was watching an anime at the same time.
If I were to make Level 2, it would require 3,456 index cards and weigh about 15 lbs. The whole thing would be 27 inches wide. Would it fit through my door when I'm done with it? Hmm...
The reason why index cards were best for this project is because they're stronger, smaller, and cheaper.
If I did it out of $1 bills, the furthest I could go would be Level 1 because Level 2 is too much money. Plus, the weight might put some strain on the bills.
For index cards, I can get 250 for $1 at the dollar store. For Level 2, it would cost me $14 worth of index cards. That would be worth the project. I might do that next month and take a picture of it when I'm done.
Since it takes me a few hours to do Level 1, multiply that by 20 and that's how long it would take me to do Level 2. Considering that, I might do Level 1 per day... taking me about 20 days to complete it.
