If you have a larger version of the twister and you have a 1 1/2" plastic template, then just place the template over the larger twister square and follow the lines. No matter what size, smaller or larger, you can duplicate it yourself. Linda

I made my own template from cardboard and then traced around it with pencil and used scissors. I used scraps from the wall hanging. [ATTACH=CONFIG]296305[/ATTACH]

make your own....go to hardware and see if they can cut ya a 1 1/2" square....mark quarter of an inch from right corner (mark with a T for top) and then rotate right and mark all the way around, connect the lines top to bottom....I have a package of square templates I bought somewhere and marked the 3" one this way. We want to see the mini when you get it done....the picture is of 3 ½ and the 6 ½

I tried to post this before, didn't show up! To draft your own use your existing twister tool (no matter what size) and use a 1 1/2" template on top of the twister tool. Square them up, and use a marker to line up the "twisted lines" from the center. I used an additional ruler to make sure the lines were trully straight. This will work on a larger template as well. The angles are worked out mathmatically and will translate into any size. Linda
