Lay the copy of the original drawing on template material lexan hardwood what not and adhere the copy to the template material with some spray on glue. Then you can cut the template based on the original drawing.

I draw them onto heavey stock paper after doing them on graph paper where I also place all my notes. Then take the heavey stock paper and place on a plastic sheet, where I have drawn a right angle center line axis and trace the outline onto the plastic. Place plastic in the vega and turn a plug with it. I tweak the plastic until it is just a smidgeon over what you want in the end. Sand and voila. Using plastic allows for you to make it just a little fat, so you can tweak it to perfection. I have attach a recent card stock drawing of a Montauk Darter.
