    i am also working through same challenge. one thing i have started to do recently is to triangulate the inside hidden corner of the box before finalizing the last corner of the outside of the box.

    my process has gone to:

    1 start with the y

    2 draw two planes, usually bottom of the Y, ensuring adequate convergence

    3 triangulate the "hidden" inside corner but dont yet draw the hidden lines to it

    4 triangulate the top outside corner with the help of the inside hidden corner

    hope that makes sense. it has helped me

    congrats getting through it. i am working through ir right now. your boxes on the early pages were much better than mine right out of the gate. your lines are very confident and seem to hit your end targets very well, almost never overshooting. well done

    lines are wobble free and confident. but you seem to overshoot points often. seems to me maybe you could try to slow down your stroke a tiny bit and maybe ghost a couple more times to help better hit your target.

    I just finished lesson 1 as well so no expert.

A lot of my students use these. The last time I used them was when I was in high school, and at the time I felt that they dried out pretty quickly, though I may have simply been mishandling them. As with all pens, make sure you're capping them when they're not in use, and try not to apply too much pressure. You really only need to be touching the page, not mashing your pen into it.

In terms of line weight, the sizes are pretty weird. 08 corresponds to 0.5mm, which is what I recommend for the drawabox lessons, whereas 05 corresponds to 0.45mm, which is pretty close and can also be used.
