How to Make a Box From a Plastic Bottle
I show how to make a box using two liter plastic bottles. It is pretty easy to make and requires some basic tools and materials. The box uses two bottles but it is possible to use one bottle by making the lids part of the box and not separate pieces. The bottle is flattened twice making it into a rectangular prism shape. The second bottle is made into the same shape and is then cut in half making two smaller pieces. The two pieces are then made into the lids that fit to the top and bottom of the box. The height of the box can be modified to fit smaller objects. It can be used to store anything that will fit inside. The plastic bottle box can also be made of smaller bottles to make smaller boxes. The boxes can be made to fit specific objects and can be used as a display box or to hold gifts.
