Something not quite right?

Quick fixes for the usual hiccups.

My printout is the wrong size

Print at 100% or "Actual size", and turn off "Fit to page". The black-and-white bar on each stencil sheet should measure exactly 50 mm with a ruler.

The camera won't open

Your browser needs permission to use the camera. Check the camera icon in the address bar or your phone's settings, then try again. You can always upload a photo instead.

It doesn't look like them

Try a brighter photo, face-on, with even light and a plain background. In the editor, slide Bright areas and Shading, or zoom in so the face fills the oval.

What are the red strips?

Bridges. They hold parts of the design that would otherwise fall out when carved. Leave them uncut.

Which size should I pick?

Measure your pumpkin's height and pick the closest size. Bigger stencils keep more detail and are easier to carve.

Do you keep my photo?

No. Your photo never leaves your device: the stencil and the PDF are made right in your browser.
