Got mine at convention. I cut small slots to allow spray painting

I made a set of these years ago from a NAFA pattern, I like them better than a stencil. Place a centerline on your board and flip to the quadrants, I trace with different colored Sharpies to distinguish size change when boarding- works for me. You're welcome to use them for a pattern.

I got mine from NAFA. I guess that's no longer an option.

That’s kinda what I’m looking for. I have a buddy that has a stencil machine I’d like to make a full sized one out of sheet plastic where paint doesn’t stick well and no marking is required.

I notice that the old Nafa template has XXXL as 68" and over. If I recall correctly FHA used to describe XXXL as 70" and over, but these days they throw all their superblankets and blankets together so 65" is their largest size class. My template has the outer oval at 72" allowing for 2 inches of shrinkage when it comes off the board.

I wish they still kept superblankets separate. I get plenty of them so I'm pretty certain it would boost my averages.

That looks like the same stack I have. Got the patterns from a friend.

My beaver boards are beat up bad. I remember making them and all the screwing around with lining the center and Then lining all those quarts and tracing them. I’ll just lay the stencil down and paint it 10;1.

Another hint those interested I get 4 boards out of s sheet of plywood 2 large and 2 small[Linked Image]

You give up on rats? I don't want to be the only dummy still trapping rats. Just razzing, I have a template that I think I got from FHA that does it by quarters. It works well. I use different color sharpies for the lines.

Lol Steve, I may be bored.....

Sjc I’m still a rat trapper crazy however we haven’t had ice fit to support that, in this country, since I’ve been off. Now we picked up about 18 inches of snow. Marsh is temporarily (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman).

BP mine go from 3/8 to 3/4. Use whatever I can get my hands on. Recently got some 40x48 pallet supports 1/2 to 3/4 for $1 a piece.
