No, not realy, there is some if you google but I had not much use of them when I made mine but its realy easy, basically just get a XXL mouse pad, largest you can find, a marker pen?and a pieze of string like this?
? (no pin ofc)
for the balloon inlet I used 2 round plates on a cardboard piece to make a templet and cut it out, see pic.
then just a long ruler or some long cardboard pice and "connect" the two rounded halfs marks with the pen
Thats basicly it, set the iron on two dots 140-150° wool seting and start ironing away along the mark, use some pressure and just not the weight of the iron.
I use a XXL?mouse?pad, have that under the film when you heatseal it, it will make the seams realy nice and even, also best to mension, I have some baking paper between the film and iron.
