Tracanooey in the post "250 Box Challenge"

2018-03-20 00:35

Hello!

Here is my submission for the 250 box challenge.

Also, I think it's relevant to say that you said I might be overthinking things, and those posts were made around boxes #200-210 or so.

I'm not really sure what to make of your comment on "formulas," as those sorts of techniques are how I constructed all 250 boxes (without a ruler) -- piece by piece via dots, estimated angles, and lines. At least to me, this seems to be the most intuitive way of constructing them, although I'll admit that it took me approximately 6 minutes per box on average (excluding putting the check lines), which might be too long for practical purposes.

Also, I apologize in advance for the crappy check-line color system I came up with initially, as well as my use of cheap colored pencils (I eventually got some higher quality pens after box 100). This shouldn't detract too much from the boxes themselves, however, as they were all done with a 0.4 mm "TechLiner."

I eagerly look forward to your criticism. Thanks!

EDIT: Made a slight adjustment to box number 235, which was missing a check-line on one side.
