Rather than folding paper, cut 4 pieces of ply into rectangular or square shapes. They need to be square and identical in size. Working with the pieces stacked together with double sided tape and then using an edge trimming bit should achieve that requirement. Then cut the quadrant profile just like the paper was shaped in photo 4. Finally place the 4 pieces together on a piece of MDF or ply that is equal in size to the four pieces when they are placed against one another as the 4 quadrants of a rectangle or square. This piece that is now the carrier of the 4 ply quadrants has a central hole of appropriate diameter to allow the use of the template with a bush in the router.

I didn't realize that my membership gave me access to all of the great video series. I thought it was for the weekly video's only, what a great surprise. Looking a the series list is there anywhere i can find a title or a description for each episode rather than just episode 101, 102 etc. that would be really beneficial when trying to find a particular skill that I want to review.
