3 Printing templates for construction.
After drawing all the objects in his design, Klema
printed the full illustration and separate illustrations of each of the gate parts (he
used the Tile option in the Print dialog because the pieces were bigger than his
printer paper). The prints served as templates that he traced on the wood so that he
could precisely cut out the individual pieces of the gate. He used the full-sized illus-
tration as a guide for assembling the gate parts into the finished sculpture.
