newbie Q - how to make a template of curved object

Hi woodworking experts,



I'm restoring a 1955 MG TF and need to do some coach building and need your advice and guidance. I'm handy at most things and expert in none :)



I have several timber pieces that are good for patterns and I should be able to cut the majority of them with a bandsaw and maybe a router - but where to start. A typical profile is shown in the photo below and I need to make bandsaw template - something like a cabriole leg. The only flat surface is the one against the table - all other surfaces have a curve.



Any suggestions on how I would go about this?



Thanks

Chris.
