David Mitchell " To me a modular design is one that is self-integrating. If you glue it together (snip) I would then consider it a glued multi-piece arrangement rather than a modular assembly."
I'm in a half-way house on this one. If the model *requires* to be glued together, then I find it far less satisfactory and I'm unlikely to fold it. Each module is still a folded item (albeit a fairly abstract and pointless one). I prefer models that hold together without glue, but I'll still glue the ones that only just hold together if I reckon that I'll have it on display where people will pick it up. But I'm a little puzzled by John's assertion that you have to glue Electra. Electra has an internal overlap that makes it pretty strong. I know that many people fold Electra as though it were a bird base (i.e. edge to the centre) but that's not what is actually diagrammed. Dennis
