I went searching for a marking template that I could use to find the center of a shape and then allow equidistant marking around the shape. Couldn't find anything that met my needs so I decided to make my own marking and center finder templates. I thought you all might have a similar need. I'm making this free test tutorial available for a limited time. Here's a video and .pdf tutorial with instructions on how to make marking and center finder templates for a circle, oval, rectangle and square. There are two overall sizes of templates - 4" and 3.5". Each template has a 1/8" and 1/4" guide lines. Choose the one that works for you and voila! a set of templates that you can use over and over.
Check out the video and download the .pdf Jewelry Shape Marking and Center Finder (follow the link, click "File", then click "Download" and save the file to your computer) free tutorial available with a complete set of instructions, templates and resource list. Leave me a comment and tell me how you liked this test tutorial. Hope you enjoy.
This solves a number of problems for me. Thanks for making a good tutorial!l
ReplyDeleteSher, I'm glad you enjoyed the tutorial. I've found this set of tools very helpful.
DeleteThe PDF and video are both great. I have been using small templates for my buttons but couldn't figure out how to do bigger ones and get the holes punched in so far. Now I have the MS Screw Punch and in addition to creating your's from the tutorial, I can create some designed for a few other projects of mine. Thanks so much. I am sure many many others will also benefit from this great new tool to make our work more professional.
ReplyDeleteHave always admired your work and inventiveness. You go Girl!
