Oval keepsake box prototype / 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.

About this file

Orientation
Portrait

Body face: 74.00 x 50.00 mm; traced perimeter 196.47 mm; wall depth 22 mm.

Lid face: 76.39 x 52.39 mm; traced perimeter 204.00 mm; wall depth 12 mm.

From file to finished page

  1. Cut each face and numbered band with its small tabs attached. Score the tab hinges.
  2. Join each matching set of numbered bands at the 8 mm seams, in the printed order. Keep Body and Lid sets separate.
  3. Curve the wall strip smoothly around its oval face; fit the small tabs behind the face before applying adhesive.
  4. Glue the tabs to the back of the Body face. Assemble the separate larger Lid face and its shorter wall strip the same way, then let both pieces dry before fitting the lid.
  5. Check every seam and tab join on an empty trial. Do not stretch the band or force a tight lid to conceal a mismatch.
