Thanks for sharing your hard work on these! Making boxes can be so soothing... But then when you stumble upon one that isn't, it is like needing to solve a mystery. You can't rest until you have the answer!

I just received a review copy of Paul Jackson's new book, Structural Packaging: Design Your Own Boxes and 3D Forms. Highly recommend it if you want to design your OWN box shapes. Great explanation of tab design and placement and different ways to cut apart a 3D form to make the strongest, most economical "net" (template).
Here's my full review:

Another 6 sided box but the sides are straight. Pretty close to perfect...
I will leave this up for a day.

I made this a bit larger and used 12x12 paper, which is not a usual thing for me. Thank you!
