There was this big box of dry milk sitting in our kitchen for months. I asked my roommate if I could have some because I had finished my little box. She said that she hadn't been using it because she couldn't figure out how to open the box, but that I was welcome to have some. The problem was that the new box didn't have a pouring spout so I decided to install one.
I took the spout off the old box.
Then I cut a flap in the new box to match the shape of the spout.
The spout has two little teeth that stick through and fold over the flap to secure it on. I had to cut two little slits in the flap to accommodate these teeth.
Next, I mounted the spout to the flap by inserting the teeth through the slits I cut and then bending them over to secure the spout on.
I had to bend down the corners of the spout to catch the inside of the box so that the spout wouldn't just articulate all the way out of the hole.
Final step: Pinch the two sides together and insert through the hole.
In conclusion, the spout it works alright. More careful construction would have resulted in a tighter fit, but it still pours fine.
