Laying out the grid.



How is it?

Have been playing around with AutoCAD 2011 and thinking about what the next project might be.


Hard to see on a black background will fix this on the next import. Anyway the process of laying out the grid, with a centerline shown here will be the first job after cleaning the concrete floor.
Once I get the lines plan from the designer, Rob, I will layout the frames similar to the above graphic, except that there will be a frame every 300mm or there abouts. This boat will probably be built in the female format. The frames will be temporary and will be CNC cut.
We will have a 12 week build timeframe and this will be tight, but with a good team effort and the skills you are developing, I think you all, as a team will be able to get this vessel to the undercoat stage. That means the hull and deck, including the cockpit.
In the first week we need to have settled on a timeline and have found some web 2.0 software to monitor and record this.
I'm thinking that every one will be responsible for at least one key task.
