    Believe me, stranger things happen in college dorms.

    Excellent use of the gum, Slim!

    Seemed like the pivotal detail in PP's fold. ????

    Duh, I mean in your fold. Credit where its due.

  5. SlimWhitman Oct 06 2018 @ 15:18

    But I'd be happy for some college dorm-inspired folding stories from any of you foldsters.

    I know I hate it when the filament fails on my Hurwityz manifold, so I can really identify with your solution Slim. I don't know why I stopped carrying gum but believe me, it is a situation I am going to change right now. I hope the bloodshed won't be too great.

    Nope, there wasn't much blood and also didn't find out why I stopped carrying gum. I am guessing I must have had a good reason. Therefore, I am going to continue the policy of not carrying gum until such time as new information comes in that makes reopen the question.

    Gum can come in handy in a tight spot, but in Singapore its a liability. Maybe that's when you stopped packing spidge?
