It would be a LOT easier just to order a set of plans. -Ben

 

It would, but then I wouldn’t learn how to loft frames from offsets. There will be a significant amount of satisfaction gained from turning a handful of charts with numbers on them into a living, breathing craft.

Also, it is easier to loft directly on plywood. It saves having to cut out posterboard and trace onto plywood.

 

See hirilonde’s comment in regards to waste...

Some times easier isn't the point.  If trying to save plywood, then pre-lofting on paper allows for an efficient jig saw puzzle of a cutting layout. Occasionally, a tiny piece fits inside a large frame.

 

Thank you.
