I started of with a large piece of paper to make a template. I used painters tape to hold up the paper and pencil to help trace out the curves and edges undernith. then I cut with sissors untile I got a good fit.

View of the paper template over the wheel well and along the back door. I had to ape in some extra pater to fill the gap.

Now it is time to transfer the paper template to the cardboard template. We transfer to a cardboard template because it is more rigid and will emulate the actual ply wood wall better then paper. therefore giving a more accurate model.

Once I trace out the template with pencil onto the cardboard, I then use a box cutter to cut out the cardboard.

image

With the cardboard template cut out I can check how it fits and make any adjustments.

It turns out I do need to trim some cardbaord to get a better fit around the angles.

With the cardboard template done, I tranfered it to the ply wood and cut the plywood with a jigsaw. Now I am going to glue the cedar to the ply wood using liquid nails.
