--Plain Plastic Box- 
-
-* XXX 
-* X-X 
-* XXX 
-
-X is Plastic Sheets (from homedecor/pipeworks), - is nothing 
-(It's a ring of plastic sheets like is done with wood for chests, if the above diagram is mangled) 
-
--Colored Plastic Boxes- 
-
-Plain plastic box and a dye. (shapeless)
-
-Buckets can also be crafted from plastic sheets in place of steel ingots.
-
-Recycling:
-
-There are two ways to recycle plastic boxes. If you have Technic installed, plastic boxes of any color can be ground to 2 "plastic powder" and sheets to one powder. Without Technic, craft 4 plastic boxes (plain only) in a square to get 7 powder. In either case, the powder can be cooked in a furnace to make plastic sheets, from which more boxes (or other plastic items) can be made.
