Origami: Heptagon Box Base

----------
Today's origami lesson is one hundred and four in the series. Today we continue making containers and boxes. Starting today we are going to be making heptagon boxes. These use seven sheets of paper and have the same designs as the octagon boxes. Have fun with different paper and assembly to get something unique.

I just can't put it all together. I had to made a mistake somwhere. ;/ There's a hole inside and all parts don't hold together. ;/ I think i will maintain the square box.

@Asiolek87 Sorry to hear your are running into trouble. The key to these boxes is making each of the pieces nearly exactly the same. You are making seven pieces so it is easy to have shifted the size by just a bit and that can lead to a hole in the middle and the pieces not coming together well. Keep practicing and enjoy! Thanks for watching!

Have just gotten into making boxes. Your Daily Origami boxes are wonderful. Anyway to get a list of all your boxes? I'm not really familiar with searching You Tube, so can only find those that show up as a side bar. Want to make sure I don't miss any.

Well, on to the next one.
