  1. Print and enlarge the templates to the size needed.  Hint: You can use a photocopier to copy and enlarge templates.
  2. Pin the templates to the foam sheets and trace with a black marker: one body, two wings, two tail wings, and one tail fin.
  3. Remove the templates and cut out the plane parts using the foam cutter.
  4. Use the scrap pieces of foam like a sanding block to “sand” the square edges of the foam parts smooth, making it look more authentic.
