Default Track Jump Templates designs..??

Just wondering if you have been able to or know of anyone who's been able to make jump templates?

What I'm thinking is a wall of 2x4 or 2x6 cut to the shape of the jump (any jump) mirror imaged, that makes 2 sides. Now bolt both sides (long bolts) x 3 or 4 ways (the width of the track). Place this 'jig' anywhere on the track and fill it with dirt/clay, etc. Compact it down to the shape of the outside walls. then, to shape the face and back of the jump, just drag a long 2x4 across the face and back and badabeenbadaboom!!.....you have a perfect jump.

Am I dreaming??? Or do you have or have you ever heard of a formula to be able to make these 'jigs' or 'shores'?

Your help and sharing of knowledge....as always....is extremely appreciated.
