That's right. Once you get into the lofty atmosphere of a pro, it's

I'm not a pro by any stretch of the imagination, but my first half dozen
projects were just from a sketch of an item in the store. Yes, I've use
plans on occasion, but a ruler and note pad can get what you need in many
cases. I've even scaled from magazine photos of products.

Exactly. I guess people just vary in reverse engineering ability.
