Abstract: A cushioning corner pad is placed on the corners of furniture or the like to protect it during shipment. The corner pad is die-cut, prescored, and folded from a single piece of corrugated paper board to a three-dimensional form consisting of three connected triangular hollow cells which fit the corner of the article to be protected. The thickness of the cells, and thus the corner pad, is determined by sections which are perpendicular to, and sections diagonal to, the parallel sides of each of the connected cells when folded. The corner pad is thus hollow and fits over the corner of an artical with a cell adjacent to each side of the corner.

Abstract: A method for making perforations or forming depressions in a glass work piece is described. Pursuant to the method, a two piece housing for the work piece is provided. The housing when assembled has a cavity conforming in size and shape to the work piece. The lower housing piece has a continuous upper surface and the upper housing piece has a smooth lower surface and openings in the housing piece conforming in size and position to the perforations or depressions desired to be made in the work piece. The work piece is enclosed in the housing and then plugs are inserted in the openings in the upper housing piece. The plugs snugly fit the openings and extend above the upper surface of the upper housing piece. A weight is then disposed on the upper surface of the plugs. The weight may be a flat metal sheet and is of sufficient weight to cause the plugs to exert a pressure of at least about one half pound per square inch on the work piece.
