pete Report post Posted October 25, 2009 There kinda' ain't instructions for it. Basically you treat it like a triangle. Pick one point and think of it as the top with the other 2 as the right and left bases. If you want to put your pattern straight up the middle of something then draw a faint line and center the topmost point. If you whack it and get a good 3 point basketweave impression then move it up until the bottom (center) of the stamp fits over the top of the first impression. Work your way up and when done, keep it vertical and start again. The next row will fit into the first row like a jigsaw puzzle.. NOTE- Whether it's a Tandy or no name brand, I guarantee that it's not exactly symmetrical . Take a piece of scrap and practice but pick one of the points and LABEL IT with nail polish, sharpie etc. and ALWAY put that point at the top. hope this helps. ps- tandy may have a tutorial on it's website- it did a year or so ago. Check out some of the work here- if you see it it will be clearer to you. pete Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
