How to make an Twistar or Origami Medial Rhombic Triacontahedron

Instruction on how to make the Twistar or Origami Medial Rhombic Triacontahedron. I never knew this model with the "floating"spikes was so easy to fold. I thought it required glue, but is not needed! Putting it together is a bit of a hassle but still relatively easy. The locking is not great but when the first two complete 5 module spikes are ready it locking is not so bad either. Magnificant design by Miyuki Kawamura with close resemblance to a Medial Rhombic Triacontahedron and the Daniel Kwan's SSMART Dodecahedron. Have been trying to locate the original publication, luckily our pianoman73 made a vid first ;-)
