The Tuttle Kaleidoscope 100-sheet series is a mid-tier option for hobbyists who want high-quality prints for their geometric models. The 6-inch stock provides a balanced tensile strength that is well-suited for modular units. The 60-70 GSM weight is often considered the "Goldilocks Zone" for paper folding, as it holds a crease well without being so thick that the fibers snap when the paper is layered.
The set includes a 16-page booklet to help new folders get started immediately. The ink used in the printing is resistant to "cracking" along the edges of sharp folds, maintaining the visual appeal of the kaleidoscope patterns even in complex designs. While the patterns are double-sided, they are designed to be coordinated, which can add a level of visual interest to models where both the interior and exterior of the paper are visible. It is a functional choice for those who want a small, high-quality collection of patterned squares.
- Precision-cut sheets ensure 90-degree corners for easier alignment.
- Includes an instructional booklet for six different projects.
- Durable wood-pulp base holds "memory" folds effectively.
For those who need a larger quantity for an ambitious project, the Marbled Patterns 200-sheet set provides double the volume with a different aesthetic.
