You can find the written version with illustrations, more cutting details and options as well as more information. I have filled it with measuring, block measures, drafting, templates, pleats, layplans undercutting and materials as well as a quicker reference to come back to than this guide. There’s still stuff I want to add and the video guide essentially acts as a demonstration, as well as a demonstration for adding pleats, if you needed it. If there’s a difference between this and the written guide, defer to the written guide.
All that said it is recommended that you create your own technical file to best suit you.

I am clear everywhere about what scale is, I will answer no questions asking what it is. In trouser drafting scale is half the seat and the method is made with different fractions of scale. When using imperial you rather need to use a tailors L-square, but in metric the fractions can be worked out on a calculator. The L-square is more efficient generally anyway since it means you don’t have to do the calculations and it makes reliable rightangles.
This might be the final fix to my guides for a while. The companion guide was a ridiculous labour and that’s with cutting out a bunch of extra stuff that I want to add. It took 3 tries to get this one recorded. The advantage there is that now I have a new 36 block and a 38 block already.
