the templates are a big problem for me too. The templates on Zeke's site are wonderful, but it is really difficult to copy them on the hacksaw blades with a small error!
Instead I convert the photos into two dimensional drawings using the paint inside the windows. Then I have them printed on tranparent sheets. While making the picks I shape them by comparing them to these transparent drawings.
Here is an example: (Southord slimline middle hook)

But this is a procedure only I use, since I couldn't manage to copying the templates on the blades. That's why I can not suggest it or compare it with other methods.. But it is simple
