Hexagonal Box(base)

NOTE:

This box bottom is made a little narrow to fitinside the lid. Figures 1 through 6 indicatehow the width is determined.

Once you have made a paper model, youcan measure your fabric against it and avoidrepetition.

This process establishes thewidth. The width is determinedby how much overlap is madeat the center.
