I save cereal boxes because they are about the right thickness to use for sheet metal work. I use them for patterns to make sheet metal parts.

I had a thought the other day to build a template for a transmission hump. I covered the hole over my TKO with cardboard, used a 3" lid to get the diameter of the shifter plate.

I screwed the cardboard to the hole, covered it with wax paper, and then began the fiberglass layup process.

Fits like OJ's gloves

"If the glove doesn't fit, you must vote to acquit!" (or whatever was actually said)


Hope it fit better than OJ's glove! Thanks for the bad memories.... LOL
