Read the passage: Design brief: hexagonal gift box
A craft shop in Kinsale sells handmade soaps. The owner wants a gift box shaped like a regular hexagonal prism. Each side of the hexagon is 30 mm and the box is 80 mm tall. The box will be cut from a single sheet of card, with a hexagonal base, six rectangular side panels in a strip, a hexagonal lid and glue tabs. Drawings will be in first-angle projection at a scale of 1:1.
