I've just finished plotting the first set of my CAD drawn templates for the
Quickie (Q-1) and they should be in the mail to another Q-list member, for
review to make sure that I haven't made any serious mistakes, today. I'm
confidant enough that they are ready for market that I am letting the lists know
that they are available.
I haven't yet decided on just how to market them so I'm open for suggestions.
I have 12 'D' size sheets (24'x36') that have every template, part, and jig
drawing, from the firewall aft, that I have been able to find that QAC published
with the original kit and the LS-1 upgrade. These sheets include all of the
drawings in the construction manual as well so you no longer have to print the
PDF files from David's CD with a large format printer. Just make a copy in
standard letter size for shop use.
I had considered adding a set of templates that are off-set for those that like
to hot-wire to a larger size and then sand to the final dimensions but I have
not done this - yet. If anyone really wants a set like this, ask and I might
provide.
I also have drawings of all of the welded and machined parts supplied with the
original kits - in actual size - so there is no reason that any partially
completed kit or damaged aircraft can't be finished or repaired.
Also if anyone knows of a source of reasonably priced software that will plot
both raster and vector at the same time on a Hp 650C plotter using either WIN 98
or XP please let me know. I don't use AutoCAD much and the standard Windows
drivers just don't work with mixed formula CAD. The Hp would be a bit quicker
than my other plotter.
