The challenge is how to hold the curvature just where you want it while you trace the shape. I've seen a few approaches to this jig over the years, but I recently came up with my own simple solution. Just pull the drawstring out of the bottom of an old coat. Use the kind that has a push-button plastic cinch attached to it. Thread this string through a hole in each end of your bow and knot one end, then slip the cinch onto the other end. Now, you can draw up the string to change the arc and lock the shape with the cinch wherever you like.

-JF^gSk / Here's a very easy way to keep your

J finishing brush suspended in a cleaning or thinning solution. Just wash out an empty plastic hand wipes container with a feed-through lid. Pop off the top and fill it with solvent, then push the brush handle through the hole in the lid. The "fingers" around the hole will hold the handle firmly so the bristles won't rest on the bottom. It makes brush cleaning easy and self-contained.
