Rob, any chance you could post a photo or two, perhaps one of these showing (maybe with a red line or something) where the edge of the unit is on the side and rear of your head ?
I'm trying to get an idea of how to make my template...
If I remember correctly, you had said once that you really don't have the template "contoured" around the ears, but simply cut straight across, then straight across the rear of the unit.


Thanks,
Fred

Thanks Fred.

This is a skin perimeter piece and the template was done with a curve above the ear since it is a lot more difficult to modify skin. All of my lace pieces still go straight across the top of the ear though.

The back is straight across at the base of my skull. If I bend my neck back the piece sits directly above the crease.

Keep in mind that these things always get better with age. With a LITTLE age, anyway.

Here is a diagram of the base area. You can clearly see that something has to be done with the sideburns. Oh yea, and this template was made with too much recession, IMO, hence the big slope above the temple point.
