Lofting animations with voice-over

[Ron Linton]

Just a reminder that, a couple of years ago, instead of making a model of Stambaugh's Windward 24 as a prep for building her, I created some Flash movies (animations) with voice-over that explained (to me, anyway) how to loft that boat. Stambaugh gave me permission to show portions of his tables but there's enough there to see how lofting is done. Here's where the step-by-step takes you:

Great job Ron! This should be on the WBF Faq no doubt.

your animations and explanations are superb.

[Paul Denison]

That was great!

[Neville Striker]

Thanks Ron. Have you ever thought about putting this on cds and charging $99 for it?

That was you?! I knew of these videos for quite a while and it never occured to me that a forumite might be behind them. Those videos really helped me out when I was just starting off. In fact I have it bookmarked somewhere. Thanks for the help and for reminding me of these helpful vids.

Ron,

Thanks for all the effort u have obviously put into these animations. They've been of great help to someone with little knowledge of this subject.

Good luck with the rest of the project !

Kind regards,

Eric.

I just watched the first link you posted for the lofting animation. What an eye opener. This was a very well thought out explanation put into practical perspective (no pun intended).

That looks really great! Both the boat and animations. Thanks. :eek: :D

Greets, Leon Steyns.
