I am fairly new to Photoshop. I want to make an octagon without the top side and put a straight line through the top. So imagine a power symbol but shaped like an octagon. I tried using the pen tool to make the octagon, but it looked very crooked.

I then tried making a shape layer and adding an octagon, rasterized the layer so that I could edit it, and then rubbed the top side out bit it still looks a bit weird. I think there must be a easier way to do this. I do have access to other programs like Illustrator but would like to see if it is possible in Photoshop first.

I have put a screenshot in to show you what I am attempting to do.

Thanks for your time and help! I really do appreciate it.
