I Did IT !!!! It is such a cool box! The only problem I had is I forgot to adjust the blade for the score lines, I got it to work 3 times and then ripped the sh*t out of it. I recommend watching both tutorials along with downloading the PDF to help follow along.
I hope we get freezing rain so I can make it again in the morning rather than go to work

Re: Twist cube
where are you located that you are expecting freezing rain? My daughter is in IN and they have huge amounts of snow forecast.

Re: Twist cube
That looks pretty cool! I looked at the instructions and they seemed kind of confusing - I guess once you start doing it with the pieces in front of you, it probably makes sense.
Re: Twist cube
The next one I do will be a solid color it will be less confusing. It actually came together quickly except for the tape I had a much harder time getting the red plastic off then putting it together. I am going to play around with it some more. My first time try at anything is always a little rough.

Re: Twist cube
so the serrated lines I put in - those were fold lines, correct? Would it be better to leave them off and just use a scoring tool?

Re: Twist cube
you could leave the scoring line but I would do them separate and set your blade at a lighter touch...

This is really cool. I can see why this would be cool way to use up old Christmas Cards.

Re: Twist cube
You did an great job putting it together. I watched the tutorial and I'm not sure I would have the patience to make something like this! Please share any future projects. I love looking at other people's work.
