Two examples attached, one for Badger’s 1/4 circle energy method approach and one for Omar Kaddourah‘s kangaroo modelling of the Bhooshan 3 way node (which requires the mesh to be known…

CURVED CREASED BRACELETS
These were made using my curved crease bending rig. In this case, the simple geometry and symmetry means that the curvature and direction of rulings were easy to guess/enforce.
