    Christof,

    Greetings! I too had this issue. What i finally did was to get a copy of Dean Thomas' book "From Round Ball to Rimfire: Vol 1." Then I used one of Word's "Times" fonts (don't remember which exactly) to make a template. Then I cut the template looking at original examples from Dean's book to decide what part of the letter to cut and what to leave. It took a little fussy work, but now I have a box stencil. I plan to do more of them so I can produce boxes from other arsenals but it's down the to-do list a bit.

    Hope this helps! It worked well for me.

    Yours,

    Will
