- How to make a cardboard box. DIY Cardboard Carton Box. I explain in detail how to make a box any size you need out of recycled corrugated cardboard.
I made a video earlier of my process of building a box and I have received a volume of comments that an explanation of the process would be appreciated.
Here are some of the items you may need to build your own box.

Legit youre the only person on YT who actually made it easy, clear and simple to follow. Thanks ive been trying to figureout how the F* to create my own packaging and develop a prototype thanks
you’re the dad i never had ty
You are a very bright man, as I'm sure you already know! I spent more years in the packaging industry than I care to remember and that was a very good demo. You made an AFM - All Flaps Meet - carton. Basically the only nit I could pick is that what you call the Height, is actually the Depth. LxWxD But I only point that out as a courtesy, not as a criticism. Also, for the best stacking strength, the corrugation should run vertical if possible. Nice job!! Oh, one more thing... if the box you need to make is larger than the corrugated you have, you can make a two piece box. Basically the same as yours cut in half with two glue flaps, if that makes sense.
Thank you. I appreciate the input and I find it interesting. An AFM, ha ha, fantastic. I didn't even know. I learn something everyday. LxWxD got it. 😀👍
I have checked other videos on how to make a box but your method is so scientific and perfect. Makes so much sense. Thanks!
Edit: I just finished making a box to mail books. I am so happy that the box turned out perfect. Oh the joy of making things yourself instead of buying. Thank you once again. I love CZcams and I love the people who post tutorials.
Awesome, thank you!
Great video! and I'm super appreciative as having the right box can make such a huge difference in shipping cost! I followed your instructions and just made a custom box for a long thin item that I would never have been able to find a ready-made box for with anything close to the right dimensions--and I or my customer would be paying to ship lots of air. Thanks a million. I know I'll be using your instructions again and again in the future : )
I made a 20x19x7 box with cardboard that already had creases and this worked like a charm. Took me about an hour to make it but I did it. Thanks for the help my friend!
I just want to say that I normally never leave comments on videos, but I was in such a frustrated state trying to figure out the simple formula to make a box, and for it being this simple it's amazing how many other useless videos I had to go through to find yours and it makes me want to give you a big hug and thank you from the bottom of my heart. It has cut my packaging time down quite a bit. Your video gives people back their time. Thank you. You got a subscriber and a like from me. Peace out.
many thanks for slowing things down. This is the most comprehensive step by step easy to understand video on making boxes that I have come across so far.
Finally putting my geometry skills to use thanks to your most excellent instructions! So happy you took the time to make this video!
I was thinking of making a box in more simplistic way, but you filled in the details of how to make it much better. Thank you for making this video!
Thank you for this posting. I have been looking for a video that gives a basic, simple explanation on how to construct a shipping box. Wow, I have seen everything, including one video that used multiple (like 8) measurements using algebra. You get right to the point with easy to follow instructions that work. Again, Thank you
Thanks for that.
this video was so helpful! I’ve just started doing art commissions and finding property sized packaging can be hard. Plus I have so much leftover cardboard that I wanted to put to use but didn’t know how to. thanks :)
Thank you for this detailed video. I just made my own using your instructions and it turned out perfect. Shipping an item for ebay sale.
5:05 my mind was blown 🤯 thank you SSSSOOOOO much for simplifying this process.
Good video. Informative. I have made boxes before (and used 'em) successfully. My method has always been basically the same as yours.... i study what already exists and then create a version that is scaled down to the size I need. Premade, manufactured boxes don't always come in the best size.....thanks for the video.
You are a very good teacher! Thank you for sharing your skill and knowledge.
I always learned so much from your videos. But when I saw you were just going to make a cardboard box, I thought why not. After watching this video, I was an educational experience. I will never look at a cardboard box the same. It was very easy to understand on how to get a two dimensional pattern to form into a three dimensional object.
I really like watching and listening to how your mind works! Your mind is ingeniously creative. Your brain is wired so differently than mine, so that’s mostly why I learn so much from you. Your mind sees projects in a certain way and because I do not see projects being done like you, you teach me to think differently. You are very gifted and I’m sure you help more people than you realize, to live their lives more independently. I look forward to your videos each month more than anyone else’s. Thank you for everything.
Thank you Dr. I appreciate all that you do to support me.
Thank you so much for this! So happy to recycle these boxes I have to perfectly fit things I need to ship! A truly great nuts to bolts tutorial!!!!
I’m more confused than ever now 😂
Wow! You're a born teacher. Thank you for simplifying this. I knew it had to be simple, but no matter how many times I've attempted, I just got more frustrated. I cannot wait to try this tonight because I have 2 orders to ship. Thanks again.
You can do it!
Thank you, very much, sir. My small business appreciates your wisdom in box making. Very well done
Glad it was helpful!
Alexander Dyer it definitely was! I think I made 10 boxes and shipped them out already!
I needed this! Thank you!
