I've been trying to come up with a way to lay out a plan sheet so I can refer to it while building. I thought about a magnetic white board or some foam board but don't have the wall space for it. Maybe something like a roll up map would work. What do you guys do? I wish I had the space for a drafting table in my shop but don't have near as much space as I would like. I have just been keeping the plans rolled and unroll them as I need to measure or get info from but that's a real hassle sometimes
I struggled with what to do with the 42” x 30” drawings while building ship models. The sheets were too big to have laying around and I didn’t have the wall space in my work room to hang them up. My solution, which may be of interest to other modelers, was to design this drawing rack out of ¾” PVC pipe. The upper frame is at work bench height for the active drawing sheet. The lower frame is storage for drawing sheets not in use. It is a simple matter to move the sheets out of the storage fr
