    Need input for cutting BB pad

    I am ready to make my first attempt at cutting my landau foam. I found the attached diagram posted by Teemu Kalvas in "PADS" under the thread "CCF pads affecting hammock lay". It seems to be the best description I have found so far for a starting point on a BB. He is 6'-0" and I am 6'-2" so I will probably add 2" to his length.

    I am working on the assumptions that the right end is the foot end and that the second 10-1/2" cut from the right end should be at my waist with the 11-3/4" distance between the cuts being adjusted for butt size. Am I right on this? Also, I am trying to figure out the 5-1/2" x 15-3/4" corner cut. Any ideas as to it's purpose? Where should it be located when lying on the pad? Should it really be cut on all 4 corners?

    I realize that Teemu would be the best source to answer these questions and I sent him a PM. While I wait on his response, does anyone have any ideas or comments?

    Thanks, Mark
