smitty0312 Posted December 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 The practice I gave her was I drew some straight lines on scrap wood and also drew a radius from a spray paint can And had her cut those to get comfortable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
