ARROW SHAPED BOX

This net is an arrow shaped prism.

Skills learnt in drawing the other nets can be applied to this shape.
Once again there is minimal measuring allowing the equipment to
position the lines automatically.
Remember that your drawing may appear larger on your paper
compared to the one on the screen.
