Curved Boxmaker

The Curved Boxmaker is a set of 12 curved scoring slots molded in one piece of sturdy 1/8" thick clear plastic - 7 3/4" x 10 1/2" overall. Use it for making circular curved scores at 1" intervals from 2" to 13" diameter.

Can make the curved scores on boxes like those shown below as well as other decorative shapes. A scoring tool is shipped with every Curved Boxmaker. By the way, the scoring tool is useful as a folding bone and the larger end can be used to score corrugated cardboard. COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS ARE INCLUDED.

BASIC INSTRUCTIONS -- (1) Put the cardstock to be scored on any relatively soft surface -- (even a few sheets of newspaper will work) and between the surface and the Curved Boxmaker. (2) Put the Curved Boxmaker over the cardstock where you want the curve positioned. (3) Simply score the desired diameter curve into the cardstock by using the proper slot as a guide for the scoring tool.

Create your own specialty boxes in unusual, interesting shapes.

Create architectural fantasy models. What a great project for an art or architecture class!

Make your own one-of-a-kind toys, mobiles and constructions!

Uses the same concepts and techniques as the original Boxmaker and Mini-Boxmaker to make the basic boxes.

NOTE: If you are making boxes with curved elements, the straight scores needed to make boxes should be made on by placing the cardstock against the guide rail on the side of the original Boxmaker platen marked "BOTTOM". The distance from the guide rail on the "BOTTOM" side is essentially equal to the nominal spacing while the spacing on the "TOP" side is somewhat less.
