the Basic Box Instructions.
2. To widen mouth area: Before soldering body section, put 3/8" foil on top of the
narrower foil on both sides of the heavy mouth line that is shown on the pattern.
When soldering body section, flow solder entirely over this wider foil area.
3. Construct the box by following the Basic Box Instructions, steps 2 through 8.
4. Follow dotted line on side pattern piece (above) for position of arms. Solder to
sides of box wherever they cross a solder line. Clean.

ing instructions on the package.
