| Assembly:
Our assembly process was a multi-day process that involved
prepping the LP sleeve 'shells' by heat sealing three of their
four sides; creating a photo inventory of all of our contributions;
setting up an assembly line that would best serve our needs;
and finally sealing all of the finished ravioli.
