This video is a quick introduction to making Cuttle templates. In this
example we make a project with two layers. We cover how to create the different
interlinked components, how to format the Read Me and how to create the
"Preview" and "Cut" components that give the user of the template an idea
of what they will get and a nicely formatted cut file.
