This plan is awesome and I really want to print it out, but I can't figure out how to print it to the correct size I have an Imac and an HP printer, can anyone give me any suggestions? http://www.crane.gr.jp/CRANE_etc/A010_C ... 2_2010.pdf

You could try printing A4 on your own printer and get to your library/local print shop/supermarket, whatever, and enlarge that to A3.
Look for a button, or function on the menu "A4 -> A3" rather than enlarging as a percentage.

Try this. http://woodgears.ca/bigprint/index.html

Save it as a jpeg then use that program to set the dimensions and it'll print on multiple pieces of paper to the correct size.

It was in a post here from last week if anyone missed it. Seems like a cool program. Just scaled and printed a body shape I want to play with. Works pretty good.

Looks like a goood program, but seems to be for windows, not mac.

Take it to a blueprint shop. Or worst case a Kinkos type of place which will cost a little more.

It should cost less than $2 to print.

I went through this search for a way to tile print pdf's without having to buy Adobe software a few days ago. I found this online site for free printing:

It worked for me.

Thats a VERY interesting Harp Uke. I think I may tuck those plans away for a build. Thanks for pointing them out!

I was looking at page 2. Just wondering, how does one position a fret saw to withing a 100th of a mm?
