Abstract
A media holding package assembly apparatus forms a trough with a folded and creased board for fitting within side walls of a media-holding tray and mechanically locking with the media holding tray. Hold-downs are extensibly positioned at each end of the board for extending over the board. Multiple fingers are positioned beneath the board in rows along each side of the board for extending upward after the hold-downs have been extended over the board to form a trough from the board for inserting within rigid side walls of a tray.
