Re: help folding a box with handles

Continuing (it wouldn't let me add a 4th picture)

The handles also need another fold line just before the handle opening. The fold should be so it falls exactly halfway across the box. Bring bother handles down and they should match up:

You could also NOT fold the handles and let them stick up in the air in an a-line shape.

The way the handles attach to each other (holding the box closed) is also incorrect - the half circles should be on one side only, and how they attach to the other side is a guess. You could change the half circles on the other side so they are flipped and facing the other direction so the half circles from each side can slide into each other. Or the half circles on one side and be changed into straight slits for the half circles to tab into. Or change the whole thing into something easier.
