For me, the best way to start is to establish the axis. Using a pattern from the plans, big piece, draw on the front to back line. Then replace that pattern with the thin one and draw on the line all the way from front to back. |

The Guillows Zero is a splendid example. So, I used painted masking tape closer to the actual width. The ends of the tape and all junctions are painted which basically seals them in place. I will have to mask the half moon shapes in front of each seat. |
