Hi Guys

I think I need help I am either being Stupid,old, and Senile (all at the same time)

I am up to "Stage 43 Planking the Bow deck"of my 12 month build and the template in the instructions for the Ropes is confusing the hell out of me.(Quite easily done nowadays)



The instructions say to trace the template from the magazine, cover it with tape etc, etc but the measurements in the diagram ie 9 mm and 6 mm 7 mm and 8 mm bear no relation to the traced template.

What am I missing here.

Thanks in advance for the help

Sure you will get some more updates from the builders who have got past this stage but have you looked at the official build to see if this helps?

Hi Terry, go by the measurements. As the measurements are clearly displayed its easy enough simply to make a template to those measurements rather than trace it out. Cool Cool .. The measurements depicted are correct.

Regards

Alan
