I have an antique picture for a church that is 45 by 78 by 1.5 deep with arched sides that come to a point at the top like old church windows. I traced around it on cardboard and laid that on the bot and used the bot to get points to go to pw2. I drew one side and then used 3/16 offset to the outside of the picture to get a space for installation of picture then made another offset to a 3" frame. so far so good. this was the back portion of the frame. I then took my original line and made an offset to the inside of 3/4" and outside of 2". I then made a copy fo the top portion and laid it on the back portion and the curves do not match. Help? thanks Bruce

Bruce,
E-mail me the PW file & I will take a look at it. Which outline is correct? The back outline? Be sure to label which is the correct contour. You can add notes to the PW file if you need to by pressing Alt + N.
