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.
