Hi!!
I think you would like this :) You seem to enjoy both origami and Star Trek! Yes???
For me, I really need a bathing suit to start swimming and getting back into shape!
Thanks for the contest :)
For real! He started more than 20 years ago. My family has always vacationed at the north shore of superior. He started fiddling around with rocks on the shore decades ago, and the hobby grew from there. He has written a book on it: https://www.amazon.com/Center-Gravity-Guide-Practice-Balancing/dp/1482026341
He also teaches classes and has had many exhibits over the years. His secret: it's all simple physics and a lot of patience and practice. I'm not much good at it, but I haven't put in the practice like he has.
He's been on the front page a few times. Every time people get huffy about leave no trace (he always knocks his balances down) and people try to claim it's glue/photoshop.
If you like his stuff, check out his Instagram! Same username as his Reddit one.
Idk man the author of this book and their username check out. Upon further investigation it looks like they posted the images several years ago from the same account. May I ask what proof you found? Not saying you're lying, just want to confirm.
Cat, Mouse, and Cheese by David Brill. His site does have some diagrams, but not that particular cat. There's a sitting cat, though.
His book: Brilliant Origami: A Collection of Original Design
Also, you might be able to find a pdf of Tanteidan Convention Book 10 online, which I heard does have the instructions.

The Autobiography of Benvenuto Cellini

I found this by accident in my local library. You may like it.
I recommend this if you're looking to make realistic looking bouquets https://www.amazon.com/Origami-Flowers-Blossoms-Creative-Bouquets/dp/488996116X
Ditto. my son just built some cool things after he read through the Art of the Brick book by Nathan Sawaya.
Well I did not come up with them, I got them from Paper Universe. I do have the NCC-1701-D, DS9 and the USS Defiant memorized though and I am working on the others.

"Silversmithing" by Feingold & Seitz, The Complete Metalsmith by Tim McCreight, and Form Emphasis for Metalsmiths are my bibles. I could go on with more specific books, if you have more specific ideas, but these three are my go-to reference books for forming and smithing large objects in silver (and other metals!)

Hours of frustration
This book will get you started.
And this book will carry you even further.
For each contact point the center of gravity of the rock(s) above must be directly above the contact, which is usually a little chip, depression, or flat spot where the rocks can "nestle." Takes some practice, but if you start with one rock on another, you can soon develop a feel for it. I wrote a book on rock balancing. It's on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/1482026341
