Phil, thanks for that, I've spent the weekend ruining foam, and after a few extra goes, I managed to produce a barely passable LE, using another LE template. Alignment is a pain so I may make a jig to hold it in place.
I killed a set of cores trying to get the cutout holes through, the first one I tried doing by hand, with 1/8" music wire and it didn't take long before I had the wire hangign out the side of the blank. no joy.
I built a guide, but the 1/8" wastoo wobbly, redid it for 1/4" and finally started to get some decent results by hole 6. By this time I'd pointed the 1/4" rod, and clamped the wing in place so the wire had nowhere to go apart from where I wanted it.
I think next time I try (maybe tomorrow) I'll do the core holes first, and THEN cut the foil shape!
It's an expensive way to learn, but learn I am!
