Assembly overview

1. Choose A4 or US Letter and color or coloring. Print BOTH template sheets, single-sided at 100% / Actual Size. Turn off Fit to Page and measure the 50 mm line. Color before cutting. Use scissors, paper glue, clear tape and soft filling. Cut A, B, W1 and W2. Transfer alignment numbers 0, 1, 2 and 3 to the white backs before cutting. At number 2, put glue on the PRINTED face of W1's 8 mm J. Cover it with the WHITE back of W2, exactly to the stop line. Keep both printed wall faces pointing the same way. Leave W2's J free for the second join. Includes two flat ears attached to the inside of B.
2. Curve the joined strip to match B, print outside. At 0, slide W2's J INSIDE and under the start of W1. Glue the PRINTED J to W1's WHITE back with 8 mm overlap. Press from both sides. Both J tabs stay inside. W1 follows 0-1-2; W2 follows 2-3-0. Check all four marks and the whole outline. Neither J adds to the usable wall length.
3. Also cut E1 and E2. Before adding the wall, turn B white side up and transfer the two E boxes from the printed side. Keep each ear and its 6 mm tab FLAT; the dotted line is not a fold. Glue only the WHITE tab back to B's WHITE back. Printed ears face A and extend above B. Let dry. Bridge each tab end with 11 x 6 mm clear tape: 3 mm on E and 3 mm on B. Leave the projecting ear free.
4. Place B printed side DOWN and fit the ring onto its edge, matching 0, 1, 2 and 3. B's white side is inside; the full A opening faces up. Turn the empty shell to reach the back seam. Tape the entire B perimeter before filling. Bridge each outside corner with clear tape: one half on the panel, the other half on the wall. Around tight curves use narrower pieces. Slit only the FREE half of the tape, then bend it onto the panel. Do not cut the paper shell. The flat ears must already be attached to B before the wall. They stay at the rear rim and outside the cavity. Do not fold their tabs or attach feet to the wall.
5. Keep B down. Add a little loose filling below the rim; keep the edge clean. Lower A printed side UP, align all four numbers and tape the entire outside corner. Do not push A into the body. Check both J joins and all A/B seams. Press gently; remove some filling if a seam opens. The flat ears must already be attached to B before the wall. They stay at the rear rim and outside the cavity. Do not fold their tabs or attach feet to the wall.
