Yeah, that's precisely what you do...create a 1'6 sheet of plywood, roll out those incredible 16' long sheets of paper that constitute the full-sized plans, lay out the parts, and have at it with the saw of your choice.

Dang, she really looks great! Love the red hull. Printed out the picture your PS tied up at the pier with the sun setting in the background. Many congrats and good luck. I'm stitching the hull to the keel this week. Thanks for the motivation.........

How about something like a Dremmel with a really narrow bit for cutting puzzle joints?

While on the subject of more space, I have been thinking of a finkeel and eliminating the centerboard. Perhaps a deeper skag with more ballast. How much deeper and how much more I don't know. I live on a lake in Wyoming and it would be nice in higher winds.
