Title: Printable CP Layout needed
Post by: Squeeky on April 08, 2007, 10:12:12 am

I've seen several members with wireframe printouts used as a template for a CP.  I'm looking to build a knievel layout, but seeking something to send home with the pops.  He is an excellent woodworker but still wants some kinda diagram to go over.

Thanks
Squeeky

Grab the Visio diagrams in the Downloads section under "Miscellaneous"...

They're 100% to scale when you print them, and are easily modifyable to create new master templates for parts that aren't in the original set.  Most manufacturers list dimensions/specs on their site, which makes it a snap to create new masters to work with...

Although, there's no native way to print from the program.

How about buying a pencil and a piece of paper....... This isn't rocket science.

Why is it that young people feel that they have to have a technical solution to everything handed to them on a plate, so that they can just push a button and get everything they want instantly.
