TRANSFERRING PATTERNS TO CARDBOARD

Post by Howard »

in a recent reply to a post by new forum member, steve, i said i'd post my method of transferring patterns to cardboard...

it's quick and simple...hasn't failed me yet...

1. tape pattern to cardboard...

2. punch a hole thru the pattern into the cardboard at important line intersections...

3. connect the pin holes in the cardboard with a sharp pencil and a ruler...

it works for me...
