patch shaping trick

At first I was watching this video thinking it was a load of BS, until they got to the point and it clicked. Wow, this is genius. I thought it would come in handy cutting oddly shaped patch panels - though I've seen plenty of recommendation for avoiding sharp corners - this would still work with a little modification.

It seems like you could even modify this to work with some contoured surfaces by making the stick tool and template board out of a flexible material.
