greetings all
I’m new round here
thought I’d start posting about the Clyde Puffer I’m about to start building
I got the plans from Model Maker back in 1978; got as far as building the keel and frames, and, of course, the propellor
then life and family got in the way
kids now (almost) grown up and granddaughters now filling that gap
(so much better than children, in fact, next time, I’m cutting out the middle man!)
anyway, the plans are yellow and faded,
so I decided to go high-tech
had the local print place copy them to PDF – and started converting them ready for laser cutting
keel and framework all done (one sheet of the plans)
after a lot of work with Fusion360 I have a set of shapes ready to laser cut
Nephew has a cutter so will be visiting him very soon
cheers all
