Saddle Shaping

[vikingblood]

Hey guys some one came to me and wanted a guitar repaired I said I'd give it a try since I don't have acoustic guitar experience. It just needs a bone saddle and bridge pins. I need help what is the best way to install and shape a saddle? Should I use my radius gauge and copy the neck radius to the saddle?
