Experimenting with 3D - A different route....progression

I liked the turn out of the previous method, but the overall strength of the paper once parts had been cut out was quite weak. Therefore I tried this way again, but instead of cutting actual strips out, I just cut lines into the paper, with different widths in-between each section. This produced an overall stronger form but when the paper was bent into its final shape, the spread of the spirals wasn't as effective.
