If I'd follow that excellent advice the first time I'd probably be done by now. I kept focusing on making the paper pattern tape to the fender curves, figuring it was a certain paper that would make a "better" shape to work with. How about I re-read the FSP tutorial from last week again? Maybe do what's recommended this time, maybe pay attention to the pictures?

I used some Glad Press & Seal (cling wrap) this go around for the other fender patch pattern, taped it up over the curves, cut it out, and what do you know- A perfectly curved shape pattern to work with... I even made one with the lower lip (picture of it) . It took about 20 minutes total to mess up one and then make a usable one; stopping to take those pictures too.

Geesh- I didn't figure anybody was reading along on this thread and it's sort of embarrassing now, but I'll keep it up. It might help somebody else down the road. The tutorials Robert writes up & documents are about like having somebody over your shoulder helping; if you follow the steps.
