Here's an origami-liek chair project. The site has the history and step-by-step of making chairs from the from the "spam signs" you see all over towns, especially during election time. The street spam lounger uses more than 95% of the material from 21 of the picket-sized signs, and more than 50% of the material from 1 of the "election" signs. There are only two different part blanks--one for the picket signs that form the "skin" of the chair, and one for the election sign which makes the structure. Link.
