Marking Slots

The little slots in the tool are for the partial Squedge pieces. Use a me-chanical pencil to mark a line in each slot. First, cut around the other sides of the tool. Set aside the tool. Using a straight edge, connect the marked lines and cut across the bottom of the Squedge piece.

Cutting• Cut the strips as listed above.• When using border stripes, cut identical strips for perfect alignment.
