Having made 6- and 8-pointed stars, the next step was to make 3- to 7-pointed stars.

I eventually found the required proportions after more experimenting in Geogebra. For a short edge of 1 unit, the long edge needs to be 3.73, 2.41, 2.0, 1.73 and 1.6 for 3- to 7-points.

Odd numbers of units are awkward for choosing colours: either every unit a different colour or use 2 or 3 colours.

As the number of units goes up and beyond 10, the folded locking flap becomes tiny and almost useless.
