Do these same suggestions also apply to 60 degree triangles? (I assumed your tri's are 45 degrees since you are using 8 to make your shape...?)
I have just cut a bazillion tris to make a (MY FIRST) OBW. They are gorgeous, but, I'm questioning how they will go together. Though I have read thru the tutorial here on OBW's, I don't remember the exact construction details. Any and all advice/encouragement appreciated.
