Garfield's Six Pack Carrier

The assignment:
Design a six pack holder using only cardboard, and minize the amount of cardboard used.

The result:
My design was just a small box that held 5 cans with a single can holder on the top so that if Garfield got thristy while he was walking, he would have easy access to one can. I based my initial design on dispensers you can buy to hold soda in the refridgerator.

What I learned:
  • I can't cut cardboard straight no matter how hard I try.
  • There is a reason they say measure twice, cut once. Its actually good advice to follow.
  • Cardboard can do a lot more than you would think it can.
