I can say with certanty that the head instructor at YDS has no NA degree. Tom was a student of Brewer at YDI for a period, then went out on his...
Rhino is the only CAD program that MacNaughton teaches. It may not be the best application for you. Many offices use other programs, such as...
I'm sure you paid a good price for Solidworks. Doesn't that come with customer support? Have you asked them? Mike
Block Island, off the Rhode Island coast about 9 NM. Nice sailing area. A little crowded in summer, but the autumn off season is great. They've...
Assuming you are using V4, practice with the "Record History" command. You may find it will do what you are asking.
"Boatbuilding" was originally published in 1941. It's possible that the later '94 edition is the one with Jon Wilson's Foreword. My '94 edition...
If you want the math, here it is. To find the radius of an arc when you know the height and the length: You know the height of the arc =...

Steve- Will Flamingo be usable in Rhino 4? In looking at the website it seems 1.1 only works in Rhino 3 and previous. At the moment, to render...
Ferdous, You are not far from Boston, so you might try Boston Sailing Center. They offer the standard courses, but are also some pretty hardy...
Steve, Perhaps a little bit of both. As I learn more about 2D in Rhino 4, I realize I was wrong about that comment. I have used v3 for 3...
Steve and Raggi, I've found the "enable history" command to be very useful. I can watch a surface change shape as I move control points of the...
Steve- Thank you! The "print display" works fine. The "hide in detail" accomplishes what I was looking for. I'll check out the plug in for...
