Usage
Step 1 - Score |
|
![]() |
Put one Box Blank (or your selected material) against the guide rail on the Scoring Base side marked "TOP". You will want to score your Box Blank on the side that is to become the inside of your box, so what will be the outside surface of your box should be face down. Score each edge of the Box Blank (a total of four scores, one score parallel to each edge) using the enclosed Scoring Tool. Be sure to use the scoring slot that is equal to the depth of the box you want to make. For example, using the 2 1/2" slot will give you a box that is 2 1/2" deep. |
Step 2 - Cut |
|
![]() |
Cut notches in the four square corners as shown. These notches make a flap in each corner of the box. |
Step 3 - Fold |
|
![]() |
Fold your Box Blank along all four score lines with the corner flaps INSIDE at each corner. |
Step 4 - Glue |
|
![]() |
Glue each corner flap to the inside of the adjacent side. A hot melt glue gun works best. If some flaps overlap, simply trim them. Your box top is complete! |
For Bottom - Repeat steps 3 and 4 above using the scoring side marked 'Bottom'.
Note: Box Blanks can be cut down to a smaller size or cut into any straight sided shape you wish (triangle, rectangle, pentagon, etc.) -- if all edges can be placed against the guide rail, the BoxStar system will work!
