In Response To: Grebe offsets *LINK* (Shawn Baker)

: Grant is kind enough to have published these on his website:

Ah, but those are offsets for building the plywood panels. It would take
a bit of maths/geometry to get from those to the actual traditional
offsets you'd need to build an S-O-F. Luckily, Grant also has vrml
pictures of most of those kayaks on his site, including the Grebe.
Its a lot easier to get traditional offsets from the vrml as it only
involves (admittedly rather tedious) textual manipulation, ie. moving
the numbers around (and throwing away a lot of duplicates). Do whatever
your browser needs to save the link below to your hard disc (rather
than just opening it). Typically that is right click and choose "Save
Link As.." or something similar from the pop-up menu.
