| next i cut out 2 of the images a left and a right(if you have dual sided stock it wont matter. use an exacto the cleaner it is the better. i take some card stock and lay it down and then figure out how much space i'm going to need between the two images. 1/8 inch seems good. your compensating for the curve in the front and the rear of the strut remember when i drew it it was just flat so actually your just drawing the face and the card stock will make up the rest of the fitting. those two paper templates get turned over and sprayed with a little tack then you place them on the card stock front of one facing the front of the other with 1/8 in in between. nextxt grab your exacto and cut the image out as a whole and theres your template. it really doesn't take long at all. |
