1st time cage builder

[Rokntoy]

I'm going to be starting my cage soon and have a few concerns. Welding is not a issue but measuring and getting my notches cut correctly are my main issues. What is a good website or program to look at that can help me get things right the first time? What is a good small project to get me started to get used to my bender?

Notching on the other hand, can be tricky.id notch  it long and whittle it down with a grinder til it fit just rite.takes lots of time but looks nice when they fit tight
