The angle is 9.46 degrees. But that's hard to mark. Instead, I just put in the measurements for the front and back of the legs and body. In both cases the front is just 1/8" shorter than the back. For the legs the back is 2 1/2" and the front is 2 3/8" (measured up from the feet). For the body the back is 2 1/8" and the front is 2" (measured down from the shoulders). The hinge goes on the front on the short sides of the legs and body. Hope this helps and have fun flipping!!!

Reply to YoraHome Laser w/CNC Engraver/Routerby evilbadgerHere is the thread from when I was building it. I gave up trying to post photos on this forum. After they updated to the new format it no longer automatically resizes photos like it use to, I know I could resize everything on my own but the forum isn't as active as it use to be so why bother.

by markdavdThere are a lot of good points brought up here. Some may be easy to correct, others not so much. As far as Fox Chapel replying to this thread, I am trying to imagine a response that would not have made at least some people upset.
As far as the pattern size in the books, I believe the physical...-

by NC ScrollerI often resize just to fit the size of the wood I have on hand. I agree this is a no win situation because of the various software, hardware differences plus the skill level of us, the end users. Even providing the patterns in a digitized format will no fix this because of the reasons I already mentioned....
