I had purchased the flip-n-fold for a big job I had coming up and started to use it. At the same time, I found the t-shirt origami video and I've been using this technique ever since. http://www.jengajam.com/r/shirt-folding
The last job where I had to individually fold and bag shirts, I used this method. I used it for a 5,000 piece run and it's faster than I can fold any other way. I can fold about 9 cases in an hour. Yeah, you heard that right.
I take a case of shirts and stack them all and fold one shirt off of the stack. I don't pull it off the stack, I just start folding from the stack. It usually takes 2 to 3 people to bag and tape to keep up. It's not bragging (believe me I'd rather have a folder/bagger), it's simply showing the speed of this fold. Like I said, much faster than anything else I've tried.

I made it and it works great. It's basically like the one you can buy except made of cardboard.

Actually, it's quite easy once you learn it. The video pretty much shows how the fold works. I figured out the best method is to stack the shirts in one pile and do the shirts in the pile. That way, there is less time spent trying to get the shirt straightened out for the fold. In the stack, they are all straight!Adam said:

This fold looks really fast, but it looks like you would end up with a different size when you fold a medium as when you fold a 3X, Or do you just adjust your pickup point to use the same size bag? I mean I really intend to start using it. It looks like it would also save table space.

I have a flip and fold. Used it at home for 3-4 years and it broke where the folds are. I just used tape to fix it back up.
