Cabriole Leg Full-Size Pattern
Making a nice set of cabriole legs may seem like a pretty tall task. But like a lot of woodworking techniques that you attempt for the first time, the biggest hurdle is just getting up the nerve to try it. And once you do, I think you'll wonder what all the fuss was about. (Special note for printing: Turn off "Page Scaling" to make sure the pattern comes out the correct size.)
