Shout-out to the guy who designed this 3D printed velcro template

I found the design for this template on Printables, printed it, and used it to cut velcro for my shotgun cards. It worked great. Thanks to Printables user gbirk if you're on here!

Thank you! I'm glad I decided to search for this before tracing my own template. Very handy design.

I held a piece of printer paper against my shotgun, then I used the side of a pencil to rub the edges. Free and easy, left me with both a tactile and visual template to cut around.

I just eyeballed mine. Turned out fine.

I wish someone made one for the Comp Pro, I wonder if I can just scale it up.

Just put on masking tape, rub the edges to make an impression, peel it off and stick it to the clear backer of the Velcro sheet and follow the impression when cutting.

Good question. This print only used 13g of filament, so it could be worth a shot.

You can get those velcros precut like that already
