.@cavx Thanks so much. Yeah I used the scene where Dallas took the stones out of the Diva because there's a really clear shot where he's holding it in one hand and you can scale/estimate the size from how it would fit your own hand, that along with my own small hands means mine are only 8" high compared to the 10-11 that seems to be more accurate. I agree that when I compare mine to those at the end they do seem bigger.
I think there was an acceptance for 9" or 225mm. Having started out at 290mm (about 11.5"), these were way too tall for my liking, so I went 240mm (about 9.5") because the pattern seems to be 120mm high (for the horizontals) and half pattern and half blank looks neat, to me anyway.
My template has been printed out to be 9" or 225mm and at that height, slightly smaller than the 120mm width of the stones. This will work out in my favor as it will pull the pattern in from the flat edge slightly more than is shown on the graphic. My MDF is being cut at 240mm x 120mm. We shall see how this comes together when I get my bits back from the cutter.
