Drawer box with thumb notch / LETTER
A good fit for your idea?
Letter and A4 preserve the component dimensions. Choose the sheet you will print, not a different object size.
Materials and construction
Plain paper for a first trial, a ruler, scissors and a blunt scoring tool; adult help for internal cuts.
Before making a batch
Measure the 50 mm reference and at least two named panel dimensions.
Assemble an empty plain-paper trial; record closure, seam, clearance and material behavior.

Drawer panel: 56 x 40 mm with 18 mm walls.
Sleeve panel dimensions: 57.2 and 19.2 mm, depth 42.4 mm. Added nominal clearance is not a measured fit result.
From file to finished page
- Cut all supplied parts with their corner tabs attached and score the marked folds.
- Raise the base tray walls. Glue each shaded corner tab behind its adjacent wall and let the tray dry square on a flat surface.
- Fold the separate sleeve around its four panel hinges. Glue only its narrow seam tab, leaving both ends open. Let the sleeve dry before sliding the empty tray inside.
- Check sliding clearance on the intended card stock. Support the model from underneath; the paper sleeve and decorations are not carrying fittings.
Printing and use notes
Nominal drawing dimensions are not a tested usable-capacity, load, mailing, food-contact or archival specification.
Do not place valuable, wet, hot or breakable items in an unreviewed paper prototype.
