I put filler into the scoop and used the rounded end of a small paint brush to round the contact area. Any further refinements will be done when covering and painting. 5 cents, please. |

Remove the paper and outline the pattern with the pen. The rounded tip of the pen and a small amout of pressure "cuts" the outline into the wood which makes removal of the center wood easier. |
