So I was looking for some commentary on the method I described in my last post... Am I on track? Have I got it down? Please comment.
Incidentally, I find it very surprising that of all the books I've got now, none of them seem to really describe detailed step by step approach to square rule or scribe rule.
It's like a friend of mine who wanted to learn a new CAD program. He got book after book, but they never bring it down the reader's level. I ended up teaching my friend, going step by step and pointing out all the little details and tips that the books never address. The little questions that the readers have that are never addressed. I basically taught it in lay man's terms as if I were the student. So many of these authors have difficulty putting themselves in the student's shoes and inadvertently gloss over details they never give a second thought to.
