Soooo happy to have found this. I set up my viewfinders last night and knew something wasn't right. I'll be fixing them tonight, you rock!

Thank you so much ! I didn’t know which side of my brain wasn’t working. Figured neither side was working. Always doubt myself rather than thinking that maybe the information given was incorrect. Thank you for saving my sanity.

I went by the interior size of the viewfinders on the drawright website and then just subtracted that from the 8x10 inches to get the size of the borders. The small viewfinder being 4x5 inside and the large one being 6x7.5 inside. Small viewfinder will have 2 inch border on the 10 inch length, and 2 1/2 inches on the 8 inch width. Large viewfinder would have 1 inch border on the 10 inch length, and 1 1/4 inches on the 8 inch width. Corners met perfectly on the diagonals.
