I'd never seen this shape in templates, so I decided to share it — four straight sides plus two sides that begin straight but curve to form a point.
After sawing out a preform from a slab, I noticed that the cuts had trimmed part of an area on the back that I was also interested in. Staring at it for a couple minutes, I realized that I'd have to use one of the saw cuts as a side. After drawing it on the slab, I decided to draw it on paper and use Photoshop Elements to generate different sizes and height:width ratios. Perhaps you might find it appealing, too.

That's an interesting shape to try.
Thanks for drawing out the different sizes - I'm going to try one.
