DM-POLY-HINGED-CLAMSHELL-01Shapes

Polygon hinged clamshell dieline

A three to eight-sided tray and its matching lid on one blank: the lid hinges on the back wall and closes with skirts over the walls or a front tuck. Unequal length and width give elongated or chamfered footprints. A parametric template — change the length, width and height and every panel, tuck and glue flap is redrawn to match.
