How To Turn A Square Box Into A Rectangle

[@JohnJones-oy3md]

For those watching whose minds aren't sufficiently blown by this great technique - you don't have to cut the flaps in the middle. If you want a long thin box, say 2-inches wide, just cut the flap two inches from one end. Then cut the opposing flap two inches from the other end (important). This way you can decide how long/thin the reconfigured box will be.

[@ThatResellerGuy]

Good point!

[@rigorevangelista9875]

The opposite, not the bottom?

[@JohnJones-oy3md]

@@rigorevangelista9875 Both top and bottom must be the same. Give it a shot on some scrap boxes. It's one of those things that makes more sense when you're physically doing it.

That dawned on me as I was watching, learn new stuff everyday. This is an amazingly practical skill to know thanks!

[@TheWeightsOver]

This is the type of content I love! I wish all youtube resellers would show this type of info. Very useful tips. Thanks!

[@ThatResellerGuy]

You're welcome. I'm trying to do "How To" videos on Wednesdays, or at least every other one.

[@Jennifr1966]

I was watching a more complicated version of this, where they wanted tools I don't own. THANK YOU for making this so much easier! We are in the middle of packing, and I only have SMALL boxes! This is really a big help.

[@ThatResellerGuy]

Glad it helped!!

THANK YOU! I'm packing up xmas presents and did not want to pay fedex for cardboard. I was able to transform a basic cube box into an elongated rectangle with ease because of this video. Cheers!

Thanks!

[@juanitakelly4443]

How do you know that you have the right size box to begin with, that it will be the right size when you are done?

[@ThatResellerGuy]

Fantastic question. I'm sure there is a math problem that will solve it, but I don't have that equation. I've just "eye-balled" the box and modified it and it usually works out.

[@denisajara6484]

Muchas gracias!!! Me sirvió mucho 😊👍

[@ThatResellerGuy]

De nada 😊

[@GoldieHoffmanComedian]

f'n brilliant! thank you! was gonna play around now to use this idea to turn a rectangle into a square/cube, but if you've got a quick vid for that, that'd be great too, lol. :) Edit: nvm, found one! yay laziness lol. (ie could have played around to figure it out, but hey, why do that when someone's done it for me).

[@ThatResellerGuy]

Glad it helped!

[@kyleacosta7021]

How big of a box would I need to package a 49 inch curved monitor?

[@ThatResellerGuy]

BIG! I have never actually shipped a monitor that large. I know some people will have a UPS store pack it for them. It's expensive, but I think they guarantee/insure that it arrives safely.
