Box to tray

Hello All!!

Hope you are all well.

I was wondering if anyone knows/has an idea how to create a box, that eventually unfolds into a base? Something that looks like a tray?

Please help!!!

Welcome to the Forum, Nad1!

You can try the Magic Box

It turns from a square to a very nice box. Doesn't look like a tray but very cool, though.

Define a "base" a bit more and I might be able to help.

Thank you so much!! The magic box is helpful!

by base i mean something like a placemat type of thing

either something small that can be made into a box - similar to the magic box

or a small design that can be made into a rectangular box (tray), or a base (placemat)

Any extra help will be amazing

thank you so much

Cool idea. Can I ask what's your interest in a "box that turns into a placemat or tray"? I think that if I have some context and know what you want to do with it I can help a bit more.

Are you talking about something like a Chinese Takeout box:
