In Response To: S&G: Stitch and glue design software (Bob Newman)

The big boys use a program called Rhino. It has the capability to look at the 3D model and pick off and dimension flat-panel projections of the exterior panels. If the flat-panel projections aren't accurate you won't be able to build what you designed.

: Does anybody know of good free stitch and glue software for kayaks?
: Everything I have seen is tough to use. I'm just looking for something
: straight forward that can 'unwrap' the panel shapes to be cut out of
: plywood.
