In my quest to make life easier...I remembered a method I used to use long ago on the factory floor when I was a Layout draftsman (Marker out) marking out soundboards for bracing etc: was always a bit fiddley for me using my old polycarb template .. now it's easy.

Fabulous Ken, I absolutely enjoy seeing your builds, techniques and your solution based thinking. As a Machinist for many years I am always intrigued by your and other builders jigs, setup and skills.
It inspires me to move forward on starting my first build.
Thanks so much,
Steve.

That's similar to my old template that I used before this one Beau..and somehow i got errors with it on the tops.. but I still use a polycarb one like that on the backs along with an indexing beam to locate it to the brace notches on the side linings.
