Description

This net is adapted from the design of a package used for a well known brand of kitchen cloths. Experiment with one of these packages to see how the top interlocks.


Features and Applications

Cut out very accurately, using circle cutters and hole punches first where possible, then continue with a sharp knife and safety rule in conjunction with a cutting mat.


Crease all the fold lines using an old Biro then fix the seam using double sided tape - see the D&T Online section on Scoring and Creasing for further information.

  • Left click on Download icon and Open with your preferred browser then print screen image from there (useful for trying ideas for text and graphics etc. but unlikely to be actual size), or Save File to create a full-size Scalable Vector Graphics (svg) file which can be loaded into LibreOffice Draw and printed, or graphics software such as Inkscape for eventual output at actual size to a Plotter/Cutter for example. See Packaging Designer User Guide for more detail.
