Question

Beautiful hand crafted articles like boxes and toys are made of paper pulp in our country. Can you explain how paper pulp which is made from paper can be used to make hard boxes and other articles?

Answer 1

Paper pulp can be used to make hard boxes and other items in the following ways:

1. To begin, we can create a stencil by unfolding a small cardboard box and tracing it onto a piece of cardboard the same size as a mould. Cut the shape now.
2. Place the stencil between mould and the deckle.
3. To remove the pulp, raise the mould, stencil and deckle in one continuous action.
4. Take the box off the stencil and set it aside to dry.
5. Now, fold the box and tape it to assemble it.
6. The box is ready.
