Paper container

Step 10 Rear flap

Turn the whole assembly over and fld down the rear flap.

The container is flat at tis stage and you are going to open it out, gently, and squeeze it into a cup shape, or a truncated cone, rather like the ones used in some office drinking water dispensers.

Used the idea for years. Just to add to it, you can get away without the tape if you flip the right side (step 8) behind the cup, not over the left side, and then in steps 9 and 10 you can tuck the top flaps inside the right and left flaps with the whole thing holding together.

Another thing, I sometimes make a second one out of wax paper or tin foil if I need a drink of water, and put it inside the paper one. Kept the two in my back pocket when visiting another city a few years ago.
