Using the Tinman's end flap demo I took a little time to fix a couple boxes so they looked a little better on the shelf with a model on top.
I never thought of making a scan of the inside of the flap as well. With the inner and outer scan an card stock the flap is nearly as think and sturdy as the original. Although I decided to just tuck the replacement flaps in and not glue them.

An ideal way to keep and reuse old tatty boxes.

I think both boxes now look much better!
It might be time to start my "Bucket List."
