Compound Curves

You can use something like the one you linked to, or just a piece of rope and carefully mark it on a piece of 1/4” hard board. Cut out the hardboard and smooth out the edge. Use it for a template for as many as you need.

I bought one from woodcraft and it works great.

they sell a bendable stick for drafting. you can bend it easily but it is stiff enough to hold a curve and move around on paper.

Would be easy for multiple different curves. If just one I like the wooden template idea.

Depending on the size, the drafting flex curve works great. Like Papadan said for larger full scale work. A small improvement may be a soft garden hose filled with sand to lay heavy on the pattern and hold it’s shape while tracing. Hope this helps. BTKS
