: Yep, Thats what I got as well. A tip - when I built the WR180 from the same
: book the offsets where even harder to read (more off them & smaller).
: I scanned the page and zoomed in onto the hand writing. Printing it out
: saved a lot of squinting. I also scanned the coaming, bulkheads, hatch
: covers etc and enlarged to fullsize dimensions. A bit of sellotape to join
: the A4 sheets and carbon paper to t/fer to plywood will save a lot of

i hate to be the contrary doubter, buton form 1: 3/8 and 1/8 doesn't seem right if you look at the drawing. to have the curve crop steeply from around 4" to 3/8 doesn't match the drawing. i think it must be 3 and x/8 but i don't know what x is. take a look and see what you think of the picture.
