For example, my Investigatory Project would be Cogon Grass Cardboard Food Packaging, and I already have the pulp, how do I make it into a cardboard like material? Any further help about this would be much appreciated. Thanks!

  1. I once made paper type material by taking dryer lint, getting it really wet, so that it is easily spreadable, then spreading it over a screen.  You could use a window screen, or stretch window screen material over a frame like a picture frame and staple it on.  Then wait a few days for it to try wetting it down, then spreading it over some window screens for a couple days.  May want to search for homemade paper making, should be same concept.  You could also perhaps make 3-d forms for the screen, to make containers.  

    Basically, the water dries out, leaving a sort of cardboard
