Re: [VAC] Vintagett Info Req.: Floor repair



Idea:  put a piece of cardboard roughly cut to fit near the wall, fix the 
cardboard in place so it does not move.  Open a circle-making compass (the 
type that holds a short pencil in one end) wide enough to more than bridge 
any gap.  Run the pointy metal end of the compass down the curved wall.  The 
pencil end of the compass should scribe the exact curve on the cardboard.  
Cut the cardboard on the scribed line.  Test that cut against the wall and 
make fine adjustments as necessary.  When satisfied with the fit, use the 
cardboard as a template to cut the curved edge of the plywood flood.
