It's great to hear about the stories of those who provide quality service. We should all try to support those with great service and boycott those who don't provide it.

Now go photocopy that sheet. IF/when I ever buy plans, the first thing I'm going to do is photocopy them. Ok designers you can relax now, I don't want to get into the middle of that "one plans for one boat" flame war, I would only build one. I would have these extra plans not to make more kayaks, but to have in case I screw up a form. They can also be used to make bulkheads, to cut the profile shape for the plywood form on the roof rack, or to send the cockpit profile to Joe to have him make me a seat, etc... With both of the kayaks I've built I have needed more than just the one set of plans for several of the forms. Luckily I have my numbers in the computer so I can just print off another form as needed. When the kayak is all done the extras plans can then be destroyed.
