Is there anyone who is interested in posting the measurements/instructions for say the Guillimot in a format that can be easily plotted using MS Excel? In the short time I attacked the plotting task, I was not able to get the points to plot correctly.

I did read the recent thread on CAD-lite, etc. and will try again based on those tips; however, it would be an excellent service to your fellow builders if someone would be kind enough to post the offsets in a more user-friendly file format. (BTW, I'm not trying to get a "freedbie" — I bought Nick's newest book and it is outstanding.)
