You shouldn't make such sharp corners for your grid gasket. A radius of about 3/4" would allow the cord to bend more easily, so you keep as much vacuum seal as possible.

I agree, the template radius looked more gradual than the end result on this first go around. My current pads and template for making them are more rounded. However, they also work fine, no apparent loss of suction since I can pick up my MFT by pulling up on the workpiece when on.
