Why don't you draw the panel the way I explain it? Why look for troubles?
I try to help you but you refuse.
Why annoy another builder when the designer himself explains how to do it?
I drew the plans, I know better than anybody how to read them.
IF you want to use our plywood nesting, you MUST start by drawing the baseline we show, draw perpendiculars and measure from there. Just as explained in our tutorials.
Talking about dimensions, your reasoning is wrong, you are comparing the wrong dimensions.
And stop arguing about one millimeter here and there.
Read our tutorials: we set our dimension tolerance to plus or minus 3 mm.
To argue about a 2 mm difference is a waste of time.
Others have built AR15's from the same plans, see the pictures.
You are stopped because you refuse to read the plans the correct way.
This not a matter of drafting standard: our plans are correct.
It is a problem that you create.

cut it just in the moment
built the hull, and when you turn the boat up, put a sheet of plywood, mark and cut....at least you will have a hull ....
don't worry....do it step by step and fill the gaps whit resin.....just start it....don't waste your time trying to be so perfect

Let's keep it simple. Is the problem that you can not line up two sheets of plywood to draw a line?
We can give you extra dimensions but one day you will need more room to assemble the boat, why not now?
About 1 mm difference, yes, that is dramatic.
Some of our boats are designed in metric, some in inches. In metric our tolerance is set to 1 mm, in inches to 1/8".
I, the designer, decides that this is sufficient. Sorry if it gives you nightmares but this is very clear in our descriptions.
Dimension tolreances are not difficult to understand for somebody wiht your experience.
BTW, with your background, you should be able to find the intersection between the two panels. It is a simple triangle resolution.

In this type of boat construction plus or minus 1/8 inch is no problem. There is no need to fix 1mm differences in the plans. No worries, just build the boat. The building process is designed for amatures. Just build it according to the build notes and the tutorials offered here online and you won't have any problems.
