I was recently at a spindle shop and the owner showed me a little jig that he found in a wood working magazine (he ended up making it himself).
Basically it was a piece of wood (I would guess 4x4x1) that came to a point on one of the sides. It had a hole drilled out on an angle with a pen and a set screw holding the pen in place. The pen and point came together at the exact place, so that when you were tracing a piece for a template it follwed the piece.
Has anyone used, made or know where to find such an animal. I am kicking myself for not take a picture of it, even though I do remember the basic jist of it.
Also does anyone know where to get Tempered Masonite?
