Pen to Paper

After messing about with the wheels it was time to make that all important template.  I drew it on 4 pieces of A4 selotaped together.


I am not 100% sure at this point what head angle to use, its drawn on as 20 degrees but the cut wood will have plenty of wiggle room.   I also changed my mind pre-cutting to extend the rear "subframe" so it reaches further back.  The frame will be laminated in two stages.  The first stage is to make the inner "core" of 3 sheets (so 12mm) that I will then remove material from to make it lighter (the holes in the picture).  I will then add 2 further sheets (one each side) making it 20mm thick.
