Tele Build-Template Question

[Mattr4president]

So I was given a great piece of African mahogany from work that I want to start using in a tele build I want to put together. Can anyone recommend a template to use just to get the initial shape and pockets cut? This is my first guitar project but I've done a ton of wood working in the past and currently run a sawmill. Thanks for the help in advance.

THere are plans (free AND pay plans) for pretty much EVERY guitar ever in this link. It's in German, so if your machine won't auto-translate it, the plans are about halfway down from the top.
