pattern transfer jig

[pete]

Occasionally I would have trouble keeping my belts from shifting slightly when tracing a repeating pattern. Seems it would get off line even though I taped the tracing paper on both sides.

 I took a ruler and glued it to a plastic board exactly the width of my 1 3/4" blank./ The free yardstick from the hardware store is exactly 8oz thick so it is flush with the blank. I trace and then slide the blank up to the next part of the pattern and my grooves never waver or get off line.

Hi Pete, I definitely wanted to have a look at the jig, but it seems like the file you uploaded somehow got detached or did not upload right. Would you mind reposting it for us, please?

That's a good idea, thanks

The file uploaded by the OP is an Apple ( iphone ) proprietary** file type..usually I ( or others ) can convert them to something which non iphone users can see..but this time the leatherworker.net board system cannot find the file..

so..

Sorry guys..I cannot convert*** what cannot be found by the system..maybe Wiz or Tom can find it in archives and convert it into something sensible like jpeg ?

**works on "idevices" ..does not work in web browsers..not truly "proprietary", but not standard.in the same way as "lightning connectors" are not used by anyone other than idevice users.."shiny" ;-)

***Normally, I , or one of the other members that knows how to, converts them ( heic ) to jpeg if we spot them early enough..

Hey @pete your file did not get attached!  Just the file name.  Can you post it here as a jpeg file please?
