Dining Chair no. 8 - Template review

The templates that I purchased are of great value for the cost. Having built a Sam Maloof-inspired rocking chair, I understand the purpose of the templates and the general purpose that they serve. These templates provide all of these requirements. However, please take this criticism as intended, to improve the templates and experience for first-time buyers.
1. Label each template exactly for what part it depicts. There was one template that did not have a label, and it took a few minutes to determine that it was the seat sculpting.
2. A couple of the templates say "expand depending upon actual measurements." For a first-timer, this might be a terrifying proposition. To simplify this, show the template with the exact dimensions based on the chair you've shown. Add the comment to expand or retract based upon actual dimensions.
Overall, an excellent value for the money. I'm building six chairs and a table. I'll let you know how they turn out.

Digital drawings unreadable

Let me say that I’m a fan of your videos and quality of your work. Since I have already made a Maloof style rocker and a chair I ordered the digital instructions and drawings. The contrast on the drawings is very low making them unreadable. Don’t take my word for it. Send them to someone you know and ask their opinion. Have a great day. P.S. when I received the drawings I sent you an email about this problem.

Dining chair number 8

As a professional cabinet builder, i was a little disappointed with the clarity of these plans, not that they can't be followed, but could just be improved with some real CAD drawings. But on the flip side it was cheap so maybe shouldn't expect so much. It does give you the information needed to build a chair.
