How to fold an Open Frame Unit

Description

This fold can be found in Tomoko Fuse's "Multidimensional Transformations: Unit Origami". I will suggest buying the book if you enjoy this fold and want more information about it and over a hundred other modular origami folds. You can find it at Barnes&/Noble.com here:[link] or try your local bookstore.

A 30 unit bow-tie model can be found here: [link]
A 12 unit model using a solid color variation can be found here: [link]
And a 68 unit monstrousity can be seen here: [link]

There are infinite possibilities using this unit. As I like to say, it's the Lego's of origami. That being said, there are restrictions on how they are assembled. Beyond that, the limit is your imagination and knowledge of polygonal geometry.

The lines are the usual origami lingo-
Dashed = Valley fold
Dash-Dot = Mountain fold
Curly Q = Turn over
