How to Make a Transforming Ninja Star! (8-Pointed)

Like this Video? Check out my Fun Creations Playlist HERE:

I explain in this tutorial how to create the Transforming, a.k.a. 8-pointed Paper Ninja Star or Shuriken. It is a type of Modular Origami Model in which we will interlock or join 8 smaller Modular Units (pieces) to get a larger one. This model was designed by Robert Neale.

All that is required is 8 small square sheets of paper. I am using 9cm x 9cm dimension paper I found in staples, but any Post-It notes should work fine. Smaller origami paper should work well also. However, I don't recommend using origami paper because it is thinner and flimsy, becomes wrinkled and comes apart much faster. If you want to use printer paper, that is fine (but you will wind up wasting a bit). Just make the printer paper into a square, like I do in my other origami tutorials. Then split that square into 4 pieces (fold in half both ways and cut/tear). Either that or you can use each sheet of converted printer paper as one modular unit and make a LARGE transforming ninja star! (see some of my VIDEO RESPONSES)

I used to watch you when I did origami in 3rd grade, I did EVERYTHING you made a tutorial for. Thanks for being a great origami teacher!

Damn man I’m going to cry, this video in particular, I have many, many memories with it, I was a young second grader who would get super frustrated if he would fail in making one of these, now I am a tenth grader and came back to watch this video during the COVID-19 lockdown❤️

Worked perfectly. For those people who said they cant make it it is your fault you are doing it wrong

It's been about 10 years since I first saw this video and found your channel (I'm now a sophomore in college), I remember there was these group of boys that were making the transforming ninja stars and I wasn't someone who really fit in with anyone, so I figured since it looked so cool and I was too shy to ask if they could make me one, I would go home to try and make it (this was also my shot and making possible need friends), and that's when I stumbled on your video, it was super easy to follow! If only I had realized you were using much smaller paper! I ended up using 8 whole sheets of printer paper to make this giant one, I took it to school to see what the group's reaction would be and they were amazed at the size! They thought it was coolest thing ever, I ended up giving it to the boy since he liked it so much. Basically what I'm saying is that because of your tutorial I was noticed for a moment and maybe to many people it doesn't seem like much, but it meant so much to me in the moment. And I just wanted to thank you for all your origami videos, they brought me so much joy! Not to mention the ninja knot! I still use that knot to this very day to tie my shoes! I hope you're doing well, take care!

Oh my god I finally found you! I used to watch your videos everyday back in 3rd-4th grade, (8 years ago) im now a senior in high school. It’s truly a great thing to see you’re still doing well man.
