Hey Mike,

There's no reason to think the plans aren't perfect. Given the forms are different, but symmetrically so, when you place them on the plans, the idea that the forms are right while the plans are off doesn't hold water.

: Hi Stephen,
: I've got Rob's plans for a Shooting Star and the lines of the plan
: are symmetrical. Easy to check, just do a tracing of the mold
: lines and vertical centre, fold at the center line and see if
: there's any asymmetry.
: I didn't find any on my plans.
