Any other time, I'd tackle this but I'm short my only other co-worker & I've got a New Hire starting Monday who I'll be training full time. Soooooo....

I got sent a crappy raster image for a pretty basic corrugated box. The dieline has to go to a local vendor to make 'em, and I just don't have the time/patience to recreate the thing. Anybody wanna take a stab? I can send the image provided, at least it has measurements all of the measurement & pics of the sample I received as well.

Open to estimates~
Take pity on me!!!!  :shoots_self:

Seems pretty simple. Gimme $25, and a case of a local microbrew IPA.

What material is this on?

Only ask because (obviously my brain is random and) most of my month has been in corrugated layouts and when someone goes into 32nds that suggests it's an inside measurement, as opposed to outside measurements (un-assembled). :o
