I made some tetra-tetra-flexagons for my wedding, and in the process made an ImageMagick script to take four images and turn them into two, one for each side of the sheet of paper.

This is where I first learned about them! Absolutely loved watching her videos when I was younger and just getting into math/science as a concept.

I still have a 24-faced hexaflexagon I made in 1975, using onionskin paper and an HP plotter. (Thinness and accuracy are critical for high-order flexagons.)
