    The last time you asked about this book I posted a link to it on Amazon. In fairness the link is not working properly at the moment, so here it is again, maybe it will work this time, if not put the name and author here.
    There are unused (new) copies there for about £10 ;)

    great stuff thank you, ive sourced both easons and amazon as a supplier but i was hoping to keep the tradtition of selling on books alive may be its a keeper for most whom buy a copy, my local library and national stock has not got a copy thanks for help:)

    You can also get it for new on The Book depository - I find this good as there is no registration needed and the price you see is the price you pay:
    http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/book/9781552093429/Canoecraft

    Abe Books deals with second hand books and they have some copies of it for sale, but once you factor in some expensive postage costs it is often cheaper to buy new:

    Ebay is also an option, but again it appears no cheaper than buying new.

    hi scanlone transfering the measurments from the drawing onto plywood to make station moulds

    Bit hard to do over the net but basically all set out for you on page 2.

    The dimensions for the forms 0 to 7 are shown in the top right corner. These include the size required to sit on a table as shown in the end view (small drawing, top left)

    He then shows the exact position of each form in the elevation (main drawing in the middle of the page)

    The "12inch reference line" drawn on both stern and bow must match with middle of the cross in each form drawing

    fair play to anyone who gets 5/8 inch ply into those bends. I'd stick to the 1/2 inch at a maximum.

    That's all prob as clear as mud
