Miter Folding

 

This is a fabrication method that is similar to Oragami. We machine flat laminated panels in unique patterns that are then folded and assembled into a variety of functional shapes.

 

Process:

• Starts as a flat laminated panel.

• Panel is machined on the underside with strategically placed V-grooves that stop short of penetrating the panel face.

• The Origami-like panel is then folded, glued, and assembled.

• Although miter-folding has no minimum quantity, there are programming costs that save money if quantities are larger.

• Finishes have the same requirements as other processes where films are concerned.

• Each project must consume a minimum roll of non-standard finishes. (Approx. 250 LY)
