There are study groups in Japan also making roof models, and i' thought I'd share a couple of pics as one day we will be making similar models:
A slightly more sophisticated model, with a splayed leg base, which is likely what we will be doing:

Re: Some inspiration
Chris,
This is of great interest to me to see study group models apparently in a setting where the study group meets. I recognize one side of the model as the one we are presently studying. The other side I would hope we could get to this year. On close study of the splayed leg base, I see one leg splayed in both directions, two legs splayed in one direction and the rear post set vertical. From these photos I see all of our study coming together.
I have some questions. Do you have information about how much time they would invest in one of these models and at this point in their studies, would they be given detailed drawings, how the study would progress?

I'm a bit jealous that the groups are obviously loaded with members who are engaged in the study. I wish I could figure out how to get similar numbers of people over here engaged in the same process. That said, you have to start somewhere, and hopefully things will keep gradually building. I have no idea how long the courses have been running in Japan.

Not quite - the models in the picture are all of a curved hip corner, while we are dealing with a straight hip corner at the moment.I recognize one side of the model as the one we are presently studying.
Glad you are coming to see that there is method to this madness in the CSG drawing group study plan.On close study of the splayed leg base, I see one leg splayed in both directions, two legs splayed in one direction and the rear post set vertical.

In short, no, I don't know how long they take as I don't know how often the groups meet. I don't know if it is a daily class, or a group that meets once a week or once a month. I imagine the study would progress in much the same manner as we are doing - component by component, aspect by aspect. Teacher draws and explains, students draw and understand.Do you have information about how much time they would invest in one of these models and at this point in their studies, would they be given detailed drawings, how the study would progress?
