http://www.quadibloc.com/maps/mpol05.htm has a nice picture of a polyconic projection.

You choose a rectangle that is twice as wide as it is tall.

Divide the wide side into six sections.

Draw six arc sections that just touch in the middle.

Mark an extra edge on one side of the arcs so there will be some overlap to glue.

Cut out, remembering to leave the arcs connected as well as the tabs.

Even if you don't get the arcs perfect, you will end up with a quite nice ball!

This is how paper hot air balloon kits from the 1970s were assembled, so there shouldn't be any patent issues.

How do you make a paper pokeball?

The best paper baseball: Take two sheets of notebook paper and wad them up as tightly as possible (literally so make it compact and solid). Then take masking tape (preferably. If not, duct tape works too) and wrap the ball up to where no paper is showing, then smooth out the rough parts of tape to make the ball as round as possible. These can make for nasty curveballs and knuckleballs. Now you have a paper baseball that can be played inside, where the bases are pillows or articles of clothing (or, if you do what I did, play in school lobby and bases are textbooks). Bats are bare hands, rulers, or broom sticks.
