Full Sized Patterns
The laying out of the boat is one of the most difficult stages for a first-time builder. This is why I propose for all designs full size patterns for the sections, stem, transom and often for other parts, including bevels and as many usefull details as possible. You just have to lay out the polyester tracing paper (also called mylar) on the panel to be cut, then trace the shape. It is easy and straightforward.
The patterns are sent by mail in a plastic tube to avoid any damage during transport.
Below: full size pattern (very reduced in size!) on polyester film of fore frames. See the keel cut-out, the bevels of the frames, the profile of bulkheads. The horizontal line at the top is the lay-out plan on the building frame.
