Hello, I'm searching for a (acrylic) contour template of the OLF Small Jumbo. Does somebody know a company that supplies this kind of template? Or does someone already made one from a CNC file which she/he is willing to share? Kind regards, Edzard |

I do not believe anyone make one. The plans are full scale so it would be easy to trace and cut. assume you are refering to side profile template. |

Hello Michael, Thanks for your answer! I'm looking for the "full body" template, like LMI has for the J200. I'll guess I have to start up Autocad and start (re)drawing and feed it to a CNC machine....After all I want an *exact* copy of the contour. Regards, Edzard |

Now the contour as in body profile with domed contour I don’t have that cloud pattern. I know this is no help to you right now but I am about to have a conversation with Stewmac about accessories for the plans like the shape profile with bracing patterns position marks slots and sound hole center. If that conversation goes anywhere I would expect 90 to 120 day before the product could be ready day at best. If they go for the Idea. |

I think that would be a great addition to the plans (I wondered already why they didn't supply it with the plans) and give it a finishing touch. Regards, Edzard |

I just presented the idea make available flat body profiles with bracing and sound hole indexes to Jay at Stewmac. We will see what their intrest is. I promice nothing Back to your question, Once again I can save you the drawing time and provide a DXF of the body shape. but I will need you to email me either a phot of the the titleblock from the plans or an invoice from stewmac for the plans as i can not provide the DXF file without proof of purchase. |
