    Default Growth Chart

    Wondering if anyone has a pattern for a growth chart? One that looks like a ruler that you put on the wall and mark a childs growth. About 6-1/2 feet, marks every inch... anyone ever done one? I would appreciate it!

    Default Growth chart project

    I am attaching a picture of the growth chart I carved a while back, it is not my design, so I am contacting my friend to see if he wouldn't mind if I passed it on to you. I used small shaker pegs.
    You place it about 18" off the floor to get the correct height for little kids.

    the fool to the left."

    Here is one I recently carved with my large cnc. Eddie has another design you may be able to purchase for the carvewright.

    Ok I put this together, is there a way to like choose all of the marks and make sure they are exactly lined up using the number boxes? Or do I have to go one by one and enter the same measurement from the edge?

    Use a snap grid.
