Next, take TWO (2) more balls of newspaper and pad around the remaining TWO (2) corners of your PlayStation (C-D). Then, fold TWO (2) sheets of newspaper into rectangles and insert on one side of the box and repeat for the other side (F-G). Finally, add the remaining TWO (2) balls of newspaper to the box (G)
