ArdWrknTrk Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Jim - Let's see if the normal way of inserting an image works better. And it sure looks better to me. Here's the normal way:And here's the embedded version:https://sn3302files.storage.live.com/y4mZDQKALAoesjoQ96NDk9PkaS7_teF_lrSWzy0QiTG240f4sEF91S7Y17ohaYOlvWkDRvrVYW8C8FRKnWSMvEt8r5U-1LiraZPstq7q3JWiyLvuqX6U3sziHLKSId-ulkDy4Z7ZitbnkOz-9isBIrcJ9F5bc0gKA96-THPJTdXNNlbFVrAHyJllm_26VXNB8qT?width=1650&height=1275&cropmode=noneTYVM for showing me it's an artefact of having it essentially hotlinked, and not just an Android won't play with Windows thing. :nabble_smiley_cool:While I could understand what your drawing showed, for someone like me it is a lot easier to get a sense of the proportions when it's to scale.I DO appreciate that. :nabble_anim_handshake:What I thought was horizontal compression turns out to be a vertical stretch. 💡 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 TYVM for showing me it's an artefact of having it essentially hotlinked, and not just an Android won't play with Windows thing. While I could understand what your drawing showed, for someone like me it is a lot easier to get a sense of the proportions when it's to scale. I DO appreciate that. What I thought was horizontal compression turns out to be a vertical stretch. 💡 Yes, seeing them together does really point out the vertical stretch. I'm sure I could fix it as the width and height pixel counts are hard coded in the embedding HTML. But that's for the "view" I "printed". So if I change the pixel counts and then change the view it'll be wonky a different way. So, the best way appears to be to just insert the image the standard way.

Gary Lewis Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Looks good, it all adds up! What it doesn't say is that the thickness of the dividers is usually 1/4". But, that would get busy in the drawing. And, the fabricator can use whatever thickness they want. For instance, if you used steel 1/4" would be waaaaaay too heavy, while in wood 1/4" might not be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using the dimensions found in this thread and this site, this weekend, I built this from ⅝ plywood and stained with tung oil. I secured it with the bolts that I believe are used to secure baby seats. I'll add a few more to my "Coming Out of Retirement" thread. Thank you for the guidance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
