'Deliciae
physico mathematicae oder mathematische und
philosophische Erquickstunden' by Daniel Schwenter was
published in Nürnberg in 1636. A full copy of the work is available at here. ********** Page 271 contains a description of a tabulae striatae (a forerunner of multiple pleated paper pictures) made from wooden slats. ********** The illustrations on page 411 shows the Three Pieces Puzzle. ********** The illustrations on page 413 show the Three Scrolls magical effect. ********** Page 522 contains a description of what appears to be a letterlock. The instructions appear to explain how to slit the folded paper and lock the halves together with a strip so no one can open it and read it, but the relationship between the text and the illustration is not very clear. ********** Page 551 shows the Chinese Wallet ********** Page 568 shows How to Drop a Strip of Paper to Land on One Edge
********** Page 226 shows a cut and fold net for the Rhombic Dodecahedron ********** Page 228 shows half a cut and fold net for the Triacontahedron ******** |
