I've had the Hornet plans,version 14,for quite some time now and decided to really take a close look at them today........I was both impressed and baffled at the details in the plans,the plans are very detailed.
The majority of the component dimensions were pretty straightforward and I figured the big picture out fairly easily.
However,there are several dimensions given that I could not interpret.
I'm very versed in converting decimal points into fractions and vice-versa,but many of the measurements given in decimal form I couldn't convert over to a fraction even with the help of getting online and using a converter/calculator.
Now,I'm a very good fabricator but I am not a machinist by any stretch of the imagination.....
Is the issue of not being able to understand the measurements due to the fact that I think like a fabricator and not a machinist ?
