ABSTRACT:
A measurement device is provided for translating the profile of a source curve from a source area to a target area. The device has an elongate body including a plurality of markings at spaced positions therealong and means for locating a point at a working end thereof. The method for translating the profile of a source curve includes providing a header which spans the source curve. The position of a respective one of the markings of the measurement device is marked on the header in association with each of various points along the source curve when the working end is located at the respective one of the various points. Repositioning the header adjacent the target area upon which the curve is to be translated permits the various points to be located in the target area by aligning the markings on the header with a respective one of the markings on the measurement device and tracing a point at the working end of the device. Joining the points traced on the target area forms the translated curve.
