Burroak Posted November 11, 2015 #1 Posted November 11, 2015 I am wondering if it's ok to just measure the distance from the top of the bulkheads to the reference line on the blueprint and then measure that same on the bulkhead and make my reference line mark? I have seen where others on here make templates from the blueprint to transfer the reference line. What is yalls opinion on this? Quote GREG H.
dgbot Posted November 11, 2015 #2 Posted November 11, 2015 I have done this in the past and then used a batten to get visual of the line. The bulkheads are usually close enough to get a good result.
