Yes, Jim's patterns and size guide is excellent for cowboy cuffs. What I'm working on is more silversmith work mounted on short cuffs. By knowing how to figure the curves for each measurement, then I can provide a good, snug, custom fit. I was not able to do that with Jim's guide. Thanks for the link. Jim

Hey Tom, I was close - I had two very large circles radiating out from a central point. By the way, I already went through lots of brown paper. Thanks for the great help. Jim

Hello all. I'm very new to this forum but am truly amazed with the huge content and help available. What a find! I've been getting requests for some cuffs which I thought would be reasonably easy to build. What I've run into is the problem with making a "square" cuff - one that would sit flat when stood on end - and especially at the end overlaps (like when using snaps) once on the arm. I've had one large wrist with a large taper and one very small wrist with hardly any taper - I' ve not found an easy way to deal with this. Can anyone tell me an easy way to figure the curve for a given set of measurements? These folks want a snug fit both top and bottom. Both of these are in the 4" to 3" width range. Thanks, Jim
