It's just a trade name. It's basically the same stuff....
unperforated peg board.
I use the 'templates' that are floating around the web, but they didn't fit
quite right.
Make a set by the 'templates'... but out of cheap cardboard,
Once you've finished trimming to fit (and taping in add on pieces)
trace it onto your board and cut it out.
You can see one of the set I've made at
http://www.teglerizer.com/triumphstuff/v_engine.htm
The gold colored edging on the panels (top edging) is actually
wall to wall carpet edging I trimmed down. Once the panels were
cut out I spray painted them with outdoor bar-b-que grill paint.
The flat black color gives a very nice contrast, and makes the
panels look like the original cardboard.

Folks I plan to make some new ones before the old ones complety disintegrate.
They are still usable as templates.
I have seen the various plans on the web. But what is masonite (forgive the
ignorance of an exile). All I can find is hardboard like we had back in the UK.
Are hardboard and masonite the same? If noit where can I find it. The local DIY
places only have hardboard.
