Perspex Toggles.

I have been experimenting with perspex toggles which could be attached to the false backs of these boxes. It would allow more control over the hinge and to add distortion to the pattern through the front of the box as these would be placed at intervals down the sides of the boxes.
After a little experimentation I have decided not to use these or develop them further as I cannot see a solution. The tension of the elastic makes these really hard to get into place and it almost feels as if the hinges could snap. It would also mean the pieces would have to be taken off the wall to be manipulated, which is not ideal.
