An easy to make paper boat is also a great dish for holding screws and stuff. I learned how to make this boat in elementary school and just recently i realised it would make a great dish for when i'm taking things apart.

Materials

All you need for this instructable is a piece of paper and your hands.

Folding

First fold the paper in half lengthwise. Now unfold it and fold the two sides into the middle. Next fold the corners into the middle like you are making a paper airplane. repeat. Now both sides should look like the right side of picture three.

Finish

Now comes the only difficult part. First slip your fingers under the inside flap (marked with the black arrows) lift that part up and pull towards you while pushiing the bottom edge in with your thumbs (red x). you should then have something that looks like the second picture. Repeat with the other side. now you have a disposable dish for small parts.
