Directions:

1. Cut out each of the Suport Beams on the solid black lines. Fold lengthwise on each dotted line, using a scissor to help you score the lines for easier folding, if desired.

2. Tuck the 5th side in, to form a box shape, and glue in place.

3. Glue the cross beams to the bottom of Sunshield #5 as shown below. A is the Cross Beam Supports, B is the Fore Support Beams, and C is the Aft Support Beams.
