I can't imagine that being too difficult. If you think of 4 triangles, with
90-degrees on the equilateral sides (assuming a square box) then any angle
less (more acute) would produce a funnel. I'd start around 75 degrees with a
cardboard cutout and see what it looks like.   Some basic trig should give
you the dimensions.

Looking forward to your next report :)
