Ok, so I've found the box pattern. Just need to wait for my proper order of paper to arrive before choosing the colours. Anyway, what do you think?   It's made out of 12 pieces of square paper that lock together. It's really sturdy too and quite heavy (for something made out of paper).  See, very strong  I think she'll be pleased with that --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=53.842565,-1.532591

Or how about this one?   That's a crane and a lily folded into the lid. --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=53.842533,-1.532619

One of the guys on a doctors forum is really into origami. This is his website: clickySome of his work:    As I said before, I used to use the wizards in MS Publisher 97. Anyway, last night I tried to make some things. I successfully made a box (no lid). I then tried to make one with partitions but the instructions weren't very clear and I got lost part way through. I take it you're using an online guide. I'm not a fan of youtube so any decent websites would be welcome. _________________ He fights for the users.

http://www.brilliantorigami.com/box.pdfAh, is that compartment box this one by any chance? TBH it's a bit of a rubbish box in that the compartments are closed so you can't really get anything into or out of the box without almost completely unfolding it.

Not quite decided on that yet.  I suppose I better put some thought into that too?

I recognised some of the pictures from a website I've been using to make a few models. I didn't realise that it was HIS website  Been using FishGoth for a lot of models. I put a photo of this on FB the other day...  Which I made from that website

Well, I made a few models Rabbit with a solid body  Bull with horns  Squid (this was really hard to fold as its sort of recursive)  Three headed crane (again, very hard to fold)  Whale  Warthog  All these are the first attempts at these models. Now I know them I'll be able to fold them better allowing gaps etc... To better allow neater folds. Anyway, I'm getting into this now --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=53.842627,-1.532657
