daj198 Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 This is going to sound really stupid but I might as well ask, theres loads of knowledge on this forum! Is it possible to make homemade egg boxes from s"Ooops, word censored!" paper / old egg boxes / cardboard? I know you can recycle paper yourself by soaking it in water and moulding it, but is there some way of getting hold of egg box moulds? Thanks, and sorry for the strange question Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xScrunchee Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Ooo, no idea if you can buy egg box moulds but I would be interested in making my own egg boxes too How about seeing if you can get hold of a polystyrene box and then making some paper mache with old newspapers or something and then using the polystyrene box as a mould?? Mmm, will try thinking of some ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daj198 Posted May 29, 2008 Author Share Posted May 29, 2008 I wonder whether wire gauze once pressed into an egg box to shape it would make a mould. Then the water could drain out of the pulp too. I might try that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Sounds like a business idea If you had success you could make more and sell them on here. I'd buy one, cant wait to see if it works! I didn't even know you could recylce paper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
