HOW DO YOU DO THIS?
Use templates to make it. You will need to create and cut out templates so you know what you are doing. Templates are like a blue print. They help you stay organized and know what to do. Some cardboard is thick. You may need to find thinner cardboard.
Craftsmanship is going to be a huge part of this!
Try to get all the glued seems as tight as you can.
The less glue you show the better.
Take your time and do it right.
