Cut Lid or Bottom
Cut a six-sided lid, big enough so you can reach in and clean out all the pumpkin gunk. Angle the Lid CutterTM Saw or a knife towards the center of the pumpkin to create a ledge that supports the lid.

Clean and Scrape
Using the Pumpkin Masters patented Scraper ScoopTM (or a flat-edged ice cream scoop), clean out the seeds and strings. Where you plan to carve, scrape the pumpkin wall until it's about one inch thick.

Attach Pattern
Tape or pin the pattern to your pumpkin. If you use pins, place them on the design lines so you don't end up with holes you don't want!

 |
Transfer Design
Using Pumpkin Masters poker tool or a push pin, make pinpoint marks 1/16" to 1/8" apart along the design lines. Check to see you have transferred the design completely, then tear the pattern off the pumpkin.

"Saw" Design
