Watched a lot of your tracing and looks awesome, just wish those tracing boards weren't so expensive. I just don't do enough of it to justify the cost or I would be all over it.

you are right the drawing boards and software are expensive , i have been using this system since 2007-2008
and I never did get into all the cad programs so this was my easy way of creating all the 2d files i needed
and I bit the bullet and bought into it

Very nice.
However, having seen many Amish buggies around here, I would get rid of the large radii at the "roof"
They look much more squared off in real life.

EDIT: I think they even have an "overhang" like a shed roof.
