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.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.timpark.org&#x2F;making-a-tetratetraflexagon&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.timpark.org&#x2F;making-a-tetratetraflexagon&#x2F;</a> (unfortunately some of the external links are broken, I should do some editing)

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.)

Weird flex, but OK.
