Might be better to buy the guards with flutes in them.
Depends on the condition of the guards I guess?
Or he could get them airbrushed on lol (see ToranaFest thread for reference)

Hi Maz, there was a measurement on here but maybe lost to photofrOcket.
From memory it was 2 inch and 4 inch. I'll have a quick search of forum.

Thanks Marty 👍 wonder how Rob wentsearch for this in google

putting flutes on inside and cutting straight through.
I was thinking near same as rob cutting hole
just a little bigger than the flutes so it
sits flat on guard then position then mark.
but first trimming the overlap off it..
