Folks
We all drill lots of holes and cut lots of parts. Here's a exercise to see
how well you can eyeball those cuts:

Terry,
I noticed the game is messed up depending on the aspect ratio of your computer screen.

That's interesting. I cannot imagine how it would work with some screens
but not others. But then I have no idea how one would program such a thing
in the 1st place. My screen is a 19" LCD that operates at 1440x900, and the
game appears to work fine.
I averaged 2.81. I found that some I hit right on and on others I was way
off. That's why I've spent way too much money on various measuring devices.
Can't trust these old eyes.

Yes, that is specifically mentioned in the help/about page.

OK, so what if I got 13 on my first try and 8 on my second. Who cares... I go by the plans anyway! Oh yea, my monitor was one of those old Viewsonic brands that needed to be held up with an old nosewheel tire and the vertical and horizontal adjustments have been broke for a long time... What do I win?
Great fun Terry!
