Default Hex and Wedge Templates

I am wanting to make the table runners in the Missour Star Quilt Co tutorials for the Chrstmas Trees. One calls for a Large Half Hex template and the other for a Large Wedge template. I have been to 2 quilt stores, Hancocks, Joanns, Hobby Lobby and Micheals and nobody has the Large Half Hex or Large Wedge templates in stock. I have also called The Missouri Star Quilt Co and several others trying to locate these templates but everyone is out of stock and I'm not having any luck on the web. So, I am trying to make my own templates but need some help/advise since math is not my cup of tea. If any of you have either template can you please share the size/measurements of them so I can attempt to draw them out?

I have a template for a 9x9x13 Strip Tube Ruler by Cosey Quilt Design that resembles the Wedge Ruler. If I used this ruler for the Wedge Ruler, would it work with the excepton of my tree being shorter and wider than the tree shown in the tutorial? And, if I used the lower half of this same ruler, could I make it work for the Half Hex and would the pattern look OK if the angles on the tree were sharper than those on the tutorial?

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can give me with this.
