Step 15Measure Out the Inner Riser
For this step you will need the bottom of your box, pencil, piece of riser paper and ruler (Photo 1).
Place the box atop the riser paper* and trace along the bottom with the pencil. Set your ruler in about an eighth of an inch from that line and retrace (Photo 2). Mark out 5/8ths of an inch from the retraced line (Photo 3) and redraw the hexagon. Add in marks at the corners at right angles (Photo 4). Your drawing should now look similar to the template for the box top (Photo 5).
*You'll want to pick a semi-sturdy paper for this. You won't need card stock, but regular copy paper will be too flimsy.
