This week I made a small box out of cardboard. The sides are made to press fit together. There is a difference between the tabs and the slot so that the tab can fit snugly. Using Corel Draw, it is easy to design the six sides.

A short video showing my box after it is finished.

I like Corel Draw as a 2D design tool. It is not hard to learn and use. I had to remind myself to make sure the layout matches the specs I used on the Laser printer otherwise you get an error indicator when you go to print the design. The Epilog Laser printer is what I cut the cardboard pieces with. Perhaps on my next run I will draw a cool design to engrave on the sides of my box!
