I built my first kayak using the BearBoat design program where I printed out the many 9 1/2 x 11 inch sections and taped them together to make one station cross section. I am now building Rob Mack's Shooting Star and I am doing the same thing. For instance, Stations #8,9,10,11,and 12 are all printed inside the larger station #8. I put a big X across the pattern for extra line up lines and then scan this pattern in three sections and then printed out 5 sheets of each scan. That's enought to make all five stations when taped together. The scan are not exactly accurate so I match the out side of the stations to Rob's master patterns and then them tape together, keeping the center lines and and sheer lines exactly in possition. This seems the easiest way for me. I don't like to trace.
