Strip: Lofting the Great Auk

Here is where I am at with my first go at Lofting plans from a table of offsets. I am keeping it simple by not going for the compound curves just keeping the shear as a sharp edge. As a Math teacher I calculated the offsets to 32's and 64's as needed to get the measurements as accurate as possible. Photos wouldn't upload so here are the links to my FB page
