How I use BigPrint to make 1:1 templates to use in the workshop

Using 1:1 templates makes it easy to get a sense of it before I start building. In fact, quite often after I print the templates I revise the CAD model after seeing it 1:1. Using templates in the shop makes it easier and avoids potential measurment errors. The templates I'm making in this video are for these chairs

The advantage to this approach is that it involves minimal time on site for capturing the shape.
