Any advice on how to fix it?
Thanks in advance for the help… (

Simulate a folded box from unwrapped layout

No easy magic that I know of. I would start like this, splitting the cardboard into five pieces.

Cut the long sides (green and yellow) by the 4 lines that are 43.46 units long and rotate the ends 45 degrees.

That is the final object I want to build. That is for the rectangular one.

So I am testing other approaches, like origami folds.
