A box configuring tool includes a base having a planar surface, a first stop positioned at a first end of the base, and a second stop positioned at a second end of the base opposing the first end of the base. The tool also includes a pair of spaced-apart walls coupled to the base to define an open-ended chute along the base's planar surface. The open-ended chute is disposed between the first stop and the second stop. The open-ended chute has a tapered-width portion contiguous with a constant-width portion.

1. A box configuring tool, comprising: a base having a planar surface;a first stop positioned at a first end of said base and extending from said planar surface;a second stop positioned at a second end of said base opposing said first end of said base, said second stop extending away from said planar surface; andan open-ended chute including a portion of said planar surface and a pair of spaced-apart contiguous-surface walls coupled to said base, said contiguous-surface walls extending along and away from said planar surface and located between said first stop and said second stop, said open-ended chute having a tapered-width portion contiguous with a constant-width portion, wherein said tapered-width portion and said constant-width portion extend successively along said planar surface and wherein said tapered-width portion terminates at a first open end of said open-ended chute and said constant-width portion terminates at a second open end of said open-ended chute. 2. A box configuring tool as in claim 1, further comprising a box dispenser coupled to said base and extending away from said planar surface, said box dispenser including a support platform spaced-apart from said planar surface and between said tapered-width portion of said open-ended chute and one of said first stop and said second stop. 3. A box configuring tool as in claim 1, wherein said base, said first stop, said second stop, and said walls comprise a monolithic structure. 4. A box configuring tool as in claim 1, wherein said base, said first stop, said second stop, and said walls comprise stainless steel. 5. A box configuring tool as in claim 1, wherein said tapered-width portion has a widest width at said first open end of said open-ended chute, said constant-width portion has a constant width less than said widest width, and said constant-width portion extends to said second open end of said open-ended chute, said first open end and said second open end being aligned with said first stop and said second stop wherein said open-ended chute lies along a path on said planar surface between said first stop and said second stop. 6. A box configuring tool as in claim 1, wherein each of said walls is non-linear along said tapered-width portion of said open-ended chute. 7. A box configuring tool as in claim 1, wherein each of said walls is linear along said tapered-width portion of said open-ended chute. 8. A box configuring tool for a folded-box blank, comprising: a base having a planar surface;a first stop positioned at a first end of said base and extending from said planar surface;a second stop positioned at a second end of said base opposing said first end of said base, said second stop extending away from said planar surface;an open-ended chute including a portion of said planar surface and a pair of spaced-apart contiguous-surface walls coupled to said base and extending vertically away from said planar surface, said open-ended chute spaced apart from said first stop wherein a folded-box blank staging region on said planar surface lies between said open-ended chute and said first stop, and wherein a path along said planar surface between said first stop and said second stop includes said open-ended chute;said open-ended chute having a tapered-width portion contiguous with a constant-width portion wherein said tapered-width portion and said constant-width portion extend successively along said planar surface;said tapered-width portion having a widest width at a first open end of said open-ended chute;said constant-width portion having a constant width less than said widest width;said constant-width portion extending to a second open end of said open-ended chute; andwherein, when a folded-box blank adapted to be positioned on said folded-box blank staging region is pulled from said folded-box blank staging region and along said path and through said open-ended chute, the folded-box blank is converted to an open box. 9. A box configuring tool as in claim 8, further comprising a folded-box blank dispenser coupled to said base and extending away from said planar surface, said folded-box blank dispenser including a support platform above said folded-box blank staging region. 10. A box configuring tool as in claim 8, wherein said base, said first stop, said second stop, and said walls comprise a monolithic structure. 11. A box configuring tool as in claim 8, wherein said base, said first stop, said second stop, and said walls comprise stainless steel. 12. A box configuring tool as in claim 8, wherein each of said walls is non-linear along said tapered-width portion of said open-ended chute. 13. A box configuring tool as in claim 8, wherein each of said walls is linear along said tapered-width portion of said open-ended chute.
