never done any geometric work so how do you go about setting it out, think i might phone scotland about their geo course as i found PTS to be a waste of time and money.

you don't need to spend your money on a course mate
its easy as long as you work out your Moguls 2" 4" 6" 8"
its all about the maths
get our self some graph paper

it doesn't really mater if you fix the border 1st or last as long as you work to your lines
