Tracing deminsions of a td.

[jsternitzky]

I just downloaded Sketchup and am learning. I am trying to build this TD but it is hard since I don't know the dimensions. Any way that you can over lay a jpg and trace? That would be super handy. Any suggections on making this one to scale?

TurboCad, that I use, lets you do that:



And that gives these dimensions (assuming a body height of 48"):



All the curves are circular arcs, except the quarter-ellipse in purple. Hope that helps.

That's actually a Kuffel Creek Cubby aka Steve Frederick Stripper build. You can see it going together here along with some others.

An extremely talented builder and we are lucky to have him as a member on the site.
