Tracing template

I traced the template onto the board, first on one side then flipped it to create a mirror image for the other side.  Next week I will cut out the board.

Finished template


Template after cutting out and sanding.  It is now ready to be traced onto the board.

Sanding template


I sanded the template back to the line and made it smooth and even. I used P120 sandpaper.

Cut out template


Template cut out on the scroll saw, but not yet sanded.

Cutting out template


I cut out my template on the scroll saw, staying approx 10mm form the line the whole way around so that I have room for mistakes and can sand it back the lie perfectly afterwards.
