The picture below shows the above model turned 90 degrees to the right, with index cards slipped into it and a sharpie parked there as well. Put the pointy left part inside the slot in the right part and slide it in all the way. Now fold the pointy part on the left over so that it is even with the crease on the right, like this.Ĭrease that and then unfold. You want the right, folded, side to be somewhat smaller than that, which is why the blue index card is wider than the folded part. You want to make sure that the left part is wider than five inches, so it will be wider than the green index card. Then fold the right side toward the left and crease it. Then fold the top part down, so that it meets the crease at the bottom, being particularly careful to ensure that the right side is not taller than the left (because you will soon stuff the left side into the right, which is nearly impossible to do if the right side is smaller than the left). The bottom fold should be slightly more than three inches deep, to accomodate the index cards, like this. Then fold the two left corners even with the crease, like this. Then fold the longer sides together, but only crease the left half. For the model below I used a very nice, heavy, ivory sheet of 11 x 17 inch paper that I cut down to 9 x 14 inches. It is simple to fold, and a little more rigid, but must be folded from paper that is a little larger than standard size.
