Hey Duncan! The shape you're looking for, for a globe or a dome, is more correctly a 'gore' - if you look up 'globe gores', or 'sinusoidal interrupted' projections, you can see that each segment (gore) bulges rather than has straight edges. I hope that helps! (Thank you so much for the tutorials - it's so lovely to see you both back making them.)
Duncan, OMG - that is the book I was talking about with the spinning globe!!! How awesome is that??! WOW - seeing that book live I can now see the scale of it - that is a HUGE book! I had no idea - it looks like it's 12" x 12" (30cm x 30cm)! But the effect is spectacular. I can see one would need to carefully plan using a globe like this - once the book is open there is a lot of flat real estate on the pages that needs to be covered. Yikes! The globe lends itself to a space book because you just put the cosmos on the page - I'll have to have a think about how I might use this thing in my journal - because now I have to think about the size of it as well. I don't understand how the globe actually pop up since it's not anchored to any page - I wonder what mechanism inside allows it to pull open. Anyway, lovely to see it here. And what a great tutorial - loved seeing your construction with the tabbed segments. Just saw the video where Matthew did smooth segments, so it's great to see that there's more than one way to skin a cat. And tabbed might suit one book while smooth might suit another. I'm racked to the back teeth, really chuffed (happy!) about all these dome/globe popups. Your laughing made me laugh. I think you did a great job. Now off to practice these new techniques and see what, if anything, I can make of them!
Buenos días. Admiro su creatividad, sus conocimientos. Como me gustaría desarrollar este arte es increíble. Me encanta deveras que si. Dios lo bendiga. Gracias por compartir sus conocimientos y habilidades.
Thanks for this video! I have your book, and it is sort of nice to see that even a professional struggles sometimes. Between this and the comment from Amanda Jeffrey I was able to make a near perfect dome. I doubt that you use Illustrator, but if you do I have a great trick for finding the right shaped gore. I made a 5" circle in Illustrator (thinking that would yield a 5" diameter dome, more about that later). Then reduce the width to .8 (5/Pi/2). Change the end points to corner points instead of smooth points and that makes the perfect gore shape. Then you can add the divisions and tabs, then copy at 60 degree angles. It only yielded about a 3 1/4" diameter dome because 5/Pi*2 = 3.18. And that is how far apart you need to place the tabs on the page. I also messed up the tabs around the "equator" because these have to slide a lot when the dome is pressed flat. I need to make them longer and the correct angle to allow that.
Thanks for making these awesome videos! I've been really inspired to learn more about popup and try out different things! After seeing this video this afternoon I, got excited and worked out what the "curved" net for a real sphere would look like. I think it does end up looking a little rounder than the easy-to-sketch template in this video. I made a net as an SVG you can print out, but it seems like CZcams doesn't like me sharing a link to my website in a comment.
I want to attempt this however to see YOU the expert himself still have to struggle to get it right, my fear is setting in.... Amazing though!!! Thx so much for this!☻☺
Quero fazer uma abóboda de sinagoga, não sei se conseguirei. Vou ter que treinar muito. Mais um desafio. I want to make a vault, the roof of a synagogue, I don't know if I can do it. I will have to train a lot. Another challenge.
I'm not sure what shape you need! Maybe Tutorial 14? or 13? or the two combined might work for you. Remember, you can make a solid shape and then cut large parts of it away and it will still stand up. Não tenho certeza de qual formato você precisa! Talvez o tutorial 14? ou 13? ou os dois combinados podem funcionar para você. Lembre-se de que você pode fazer uma forma sólida e depois cortar grandes partes dela e ela ainda ficará de pé.
Parabéns pelos tutoriais. Fico encantada. Preciso se sua orientação de como fazer a representação de planeta usando pop-up. Como fixar na folha Congratulations on the tutorials. I'm delighted. I need your guidance on how to make the planet representation using pop-up. How to attach to the sheet.
Hello, and thank you so much for your channel and your tutorial… They are fascinating and really inspiring ! You make popup technique nearly easy (I said nearly…) Just to check : your dome is on a 4,5 cm radius circle. I suppose is about 4,5 cm high ? I want to make an igloo using this dome technique. But I would like it bigger, so I will play with the proportions of your tutorial (and make a little rule of 3…). But is there a way to calculate the height of the arches, and should I keep the angles of 10° and 25°? Anyway, I will try, just to check if it's Painfull to make… 😉
It is quite painful to make! Easier is probably the dome shown in tutorial 61. On this one ,es it is about 4.5 cm high. I was thinking about the angles on this recently (!), I think in theory maybe the angles should be 30 degrees not 25. Always need to experiment though.
@@thepop-upchannel4919 Thank you for your answer !… I tried both (painful… you're right), but it looks more like a shell than an igloo… So I am trying with a system of severall automatic pull strip, as shown in tutorial 16. Well, it's not a "full form", but it can make the job… Thank you again !
@@thepop-upchannel4919 I tried to send a mail at popup@duncanbirmingham.co.uk but it doesn't work. can you give me an active email? or contact me at giaalef@gmail.com it is a project that I would like to publish soon and at this moment I would prefer to show you the prototype in private. you are an expert in pop up and would like some advice from you

It's always good to see your tutorials in the morning when i wake up. Thanks for the video Duncan Birmingham.

I didn't know how to make a sphere with Pop-Up, but this video was very helpful. I am always grateful for your help.
You made it seem deceptively simple, it was fun doing it 🤗🤗🤗

I think that you are right when you said "it's a bit tricky, this one". But it is worth the fiddle. Thank you. Regards Christine 🙋♀️🇦🇺👍🏻

I'm intrigued! Slightly surprised that a link to your website doesn't work - maybe a link just to a video would be different.
This is what I was looking for! Thank you so very very much 🙏🏻
You did amazing like all your videos
Yay!!!! I'm so happy you're back!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Es usted un hombre maravilloso... gracias
Thanks for sharing the video to us and to help us
Thank you Sir for this video!! It is really helpful!!
Your book and videos are awesome

I'm sure you can manage it!
Thanks so much for your vids!

Hi, i made a perfect pop up sphere without gaps in a different way
Excellent - if you can post a video link I'd be interested.

I'dbe happy to look at your prototypes - duncanbirmingham22@gmail,com
Please, please make a tutorial sphere complete 90° in horizontal 🙏🙏🙏😫
Making these tutorials is a long and only occassional process - so adding things is really not easy.
Do you have a template?
I don't make templates - I hope the instructions are clear enough so you can draw your own design.
