Re: Kindle
One of my kids has a Kindle. I'll ask her to download the chapter, and then I'll get a look at it.
RE reading the pics, I have no trouble, with a 2"x4" reading lens bought at Walgreens, reading any of the drawings including offset tables. I have also scanned them at higher resolutions, and had no trouble reading the print outs with out a lens. I could take the scan files to a printer and pay to get them printed on a larger format.
However, entering into an active building project, I would buy the plans to get the builders key, and the privilege of support from the designer.

Hold out for actual print. Amazon can pull content
back from Kindle at will!
