Box layout templates

[vigilante397]

Hey everyone, I'm still kinda new to this and I'm looking for a bit of help. So far I haven't done much besides Valve Casters (I've made three and sold a couple  ), but the layout turns out different every time. I always plan everything out before I drill it, but after I drill it and put it together it never fits the way I expected.

So I was wondering if anyone has a printable template that can be taped to the box for drilling or something like that. I remember coming across a template for a 1590B on a different website, but now I can't find it.

Anyone?

Thanks!

Nevermind, I found it. There have already been several threads on this.

Sorry 

For those that are curious, a thread from a few years back posted this:

Exactly what I was looking for.

I just downloaded Inkscape to give it a whirl. How does one load and manipulate the pedal vectorpack?

Or......do any good inkscape tutorials come to mind?

You can open it as a project unto itself or if you have a project that you're working on you can import the file. Either way you just pick the page you want and click open. The parts are usually grouped so you need ungroup (ctrl U) the page then each part is made up of multiple little pieces that will need to be grouped (ctrl G) to allow for easy handling of the part.
