Volunteer Guide to Cleaning Aeronca Drawings
I need help cleaning the Aeronca drawings that I have scanned. Below are instructions (actually a tutorial) on how to electronically clean drawings with Adobe Photoshop. It is a lot of work, so thank you in advance for volunteering.
After doing the tutorial, which includes cleaning 1-2172, let me know that you are ready to begin cleaning. I will need to mail you a CD with the drawings or arrange a time to post the drawings on the web. The drawings are very large, so I can only leave them on the web for a few hours.
If you live in the Brighton Michigan area, I am willing to provide you hands-on training. That would be much quicker than reading the Guide.
