[QUOTE="MrGiggles, post: 471566, member: 22613"] I've found that regular cardboard is a little too stiff to push into a contour and get a good template. I like either the thin construction paper type cardboard or poster board. You can push it into a contour and get a good crease made that you can follow with scissors. The only place that I have ever seen that thin cardboard used is on pallets of feed sacks, they put the cardboard on top of the pallet so the planks do not poke holes in the feed sacks. Maybe check with a farm supply store and see if they have any laying around. [/QUOTE]
