Papercraft link collection





I've been papercrafting for quite some years, and at some point I decided to put the links to the many free papercraft websites that I found over the years in several categorized and alphabetized lists in blogposts (even before I started making separate posts for new papercrafts that I still come across each day 🙂).

But some months ago when I was trying to update a couple of the categorized link lists, Google started deleting them because it found what it thought were malicious links among them.

Unfortunately, I have no control over that:
  • The links are often over a decade old and the websites the take you to are not maintained by myself
  • Some of them simply won't be active anymore (in some of those cases, though, sometimes the Wayback Machine may still allow you to visit an archived version of the page to try and download the papercrafts! 😃)
  • Even worse, some webpages might have become infected with malicious content over the years (unfortunately, Google didn't tell which links exactly were suspicous and there are far too many for me to check them all... 😥)
Maintaining and updating the papercraft link lists through Blogspot will just result in them being deleted, I've made them into bare HTML webpages now, and you can visit them here:




I try to update them every now and now from the new websites I still come across almost daily, but most importantly, plenty of the old links with many neat papercrafts from years ago still work too of course! 😀

Like in any situation when using the internet: make sure your web browser and anti-virus and anti-malware software packages are always up to date and working properly!

(and if you do come across a malicous link, please let me know so I can remove it from the lists!)
