If I cannot buy the box, I can try to make the box. I will describe the steps I took.

Trial and error with a white A4 paper. I dont have autocad... Thinking from a 3-dimensional box to a foldable flat blueprint was hard. Edges wrong length, triangles wrong way. Glad I had a scissor and tape.

Blueprint (version 2):
/vgforum/index.php?t=getfile&id=7275&private=0

How to fold (version 1)
/vgforum/index.php?t=getfile&id=7276&private=0

Put together (version 1):
/vgforum/index.php?t=getfile&id=7277&private=0
/vgforum/index.php?t=getfile&id=7278&private=0

Version 3 is in the make. Made from passe-partout. Thicker material, so I had to take that in account in a newer blueprint. Horror. Even more, Cutting straight is not my best skill. To be continued.
