your finished blank should resemble the set up piece that you turned...

I'm sure there are other/better ways, but this method is quick and easy and works for me...

A good run is better than a bad stand!

I've been using whatever scraps I have until I settle on shape and get it working.

I have some plexiglas that was suppose to be parking signs for my work but they never seemed to use it, so I've been using that when I decided I was going to keep a shape.


I do it in illustrator as well, only because I can alter if need be before and print another if I have too. This is just a gibb's troller clone I was working on.
