Someone on this forum had mentioned the template out of cardboard and I thought that might be a viable option.

I think it so frustrating to have to buy the specially sized rulers. I had been looking at pattern for fall table topper and finally bought it without reading the fine print. Turned out that I had to have a 60 degree ruler. I wouldn't have bought it if I had seen that. So now my little table topper cost me probably $30 with fabric and ruler. Plus, I really didn't like using it. I would rather just have the measurements. I'm glad some of you can figure out the math and make templates, I tried but I'm not so good with math.

I found an awesome thing online the other day.... and I am just now getting to post it here...!
Hancock Fabrics has a quilt pattern called Poppies and it has a wedge ruler template in it! I thought that I'd share it with you all :)

So I did the same thing and went to our local Ace, and they laughed at me, sooooo I said, Well your commercial is wrong, because you are nothe the Helpful Hardware Man, and walked out.
But I guess i could try Menards, they may cut plexi glass,
