I've made up some side profile templates using the method I described in my DVD's, and I was going to sell some if anyone is interested. They are full size 13 ply Birch plywood templates set to the exact profile of a bowl sanded side. These guys save me hours of work, and can be used on conjunction with a jig to shape the sides perfectly, or just use them by tracing the outline on the sides and cutting them out. Here is a pic of my personal OM side template. The ends of the piece are marked as well as the waist is marked too. I'm offering them in OM, Dreadnaught, Slope D, and SJ (4.5 depth) profiles. Prices are $15 per template or $50 for all 4.

P.S. I start filming the new DVD's tomorrow!

here is the link to buy the templates if your interested.
