I was asked on my pants block drafting tutorial, "Why do we do the calculations that we do?"

So I decided to try to explain!

Dividing the hip by 12 and 16 is a technique that has been used for years and it's hard to find the origin, but it works - so why change it!

In this video I show you how those calculations you're told to use relate to your body.
