Kim is holding the 30 4mm plywood sheets that we are going to make the templates of. The sheets are 3m * 1,5m.
Here we are spreading the sheets over the floor in the big room we have borrowed from the local scout troop, Hässelbygårds scoutkår.
Kim and Max are trying to decide what the X direction and what Y direction is on the plan and in reality. The templates are drawn in a coordinate system and that shall be transferred to the plywood sheets. Every one has knee protection, it hard on the knees to crawl again.
Here we have started to draw the coordinates. One X measurement and one Y measurement and then a mark with the pencil, next! Lotta reads the coordinates from the drawing, Kim is Y, Dennis is X, and Max do the measuring and marking.
A hundred coordinates later the enthusiasm has decreased some.
We use a narrow batten to make the curved lines. We have to hit all the marks so it takes many hands to get it right.
The drawing of the hull template with its coordinate system. As the whole template didn't fit in to the room, Lotta had to make a lot of recalculations when we had to move the origin.
The whole hull template is done.
Dennis makes marks so that we shall be able to put the sheets together again after they have been sawed.
Max is not sawing in the floor even if it looks like it.
To saw along curved lines with a circular saw is not as hard as it may seem, not in 4mm plywood in any case.
Here we have a cutout template, looks like deck template D7.
