Templates
« on: August 11, 2014, 08:10:40 AM »
Has anyone made some templates for the Cricket or Silhouette Portrait or any other pltter by any chance for the interior decals for a WNW Fokker DVII? I know there are some out there who use these and as I'm having a problem learning how to do graphics I wondered if anyone had made a templete yet that they would want to share. If so it will make cutting out my Aviattic decals easier. Thanks in advance.

Can you load .svg files into your software / machine?

I haven't made my templates yet but I will be doing so soon.

Please do not take this wrong as I am seriously asking what is easier about making a pattern from a machine versus using the kit interior Lozenge pieces as patterns? THANKS,

Bo, yes I can. I've been trying to use Corel Draw 6 and it is not doing what I expect. I have tried making a stencil for my fuselage too and gotten noting but aggravation.
RAG III, I do a horrible job of tracing. I don't know if it is the shaking hand or the blurry eye sight. I just figured a machine cut one would be more precise that my attempt. Plus if I can get a template then I can cut out multiples in one go for all of my Fokker DVIIs. I guess just trying to mitigate my weaknesses.
