Guest guest Posted June 15, 1999 Report Share Posted June 15, 1999 I just finished figuring out how to do a mold lining out of an exposed Xray. I had heard several people talking about using them and just cutting one piece for each side and one piece for the bottom, and then using shortening to seal the seams. This seemed like a good idea, but then I thought why should it have to be five seperate pieces. So I got the trusty butcher paper out and started whittling and made me a template. And sure enough I made a complete mold lining out of one piece of exray without any addition pieces. All I will have to do is seal the four corner edges. _______ l l l----l __ l-----l l l l___ __ ___l_ l l l______l Needless to say computer drawing is not my strong suit, but this might give you an idea of what I am talking about.

Guest guest Posted June 15, 1999 Report Share Posted June 15, 1999 Those big sheets you get at fabric stores for about 2.00 that are plastic you use to make quilting templates works really well too and they're easy to clean. Just a thought.
