Comments:Non-modular octagonal boxes like these are very challenging to make because of the many precise pre-creases required and the use of a tricky "twist-down" technique.
 
If you have already mastered Tomoko Fuse's non-modular hexagon boxes, then these octagons will be easier; many of the folds/steps are very similar.
 
Scoring the pre-creases helps a lot, if the type of paper used is strong enough to take scoring without tearing and to hold sharp creases without breakthrough at corners.
