damn i was in a hurry when i typed that and i forgo to add the key step in making cardboard bunkers. after you have taped all your empty paint boxes together and you have it at a good size, take some plastic grocery bags (if you buy paint at walmart they will probablly put it in a bag for you) and duct tape that around the cardboard so there is none of the box(es) showing. you can cut the bags to make them fit tighter around the corners. make sure you tape the top, bottom, and sides of the bags everywhere you want them to cover the box, otherwise they could be blown up by the wind and expose it to weather, which would compromise your box. the tighter you can make the bags fit around the boxes, the better it will be and longer it will last, but don't stretch it. by tight i mean not having half the bag covering the cardboard decently and the other half wadded up sticking out of the box. i have done this and my paintball boxes that are 2 months old are still holding up.
