Stay tuned.

Bruce was asking about the PDF I promised to make... I did get your book just fine. I'll do my best to get it scanned and make the PDF ASAP. Sorry, I've been a little under the weather... got the dang flu, so I haven't felt like doing much lately. I am a little concerned about breaking the spine of the nice book while trying to scan it? I may try to make xerox copies first then scan them.

At least I am feeling much better finally today... so I'll try to get on with it tonight and post it here.

Vintage build plan archives...

Postby cuyeda » Tue Jan 02, 2007 5:24 pm

I am not sure what guidelines Mike has for archiving such plans at the top of the forums, "Vintage Plans". Perhaps it could be added to that section for all of us.

I have collected a BUNCH of vintage magazine plans. Some of which Mike already has, some that he doesn't. As for paying some of my dues around here, I could provide such plans to Mike to add. If the submissions are not acceptable after Mike reviews the materials, I will make my own web section to download from. Mike if your watching, let me know if you are interested. PM me.

disclaimer: Someone sells these copies on Ebay, but is not their original material.

Brick, use whatever you can from that book, and return it when you can. I really do appreciate your help.

Durn it all, sorry you aren't feeling well. Take care and get well.

Dave... I just sent Mike a PM asking where to upload the PDF file of the Wander Hogan and some other stuff in your book. So, I did get it done... just need somewhere to put it. Sadly, it doesn't really have plans as such... more of an overview of various tralers John Gartner did over the years. There is one very good 3D drawing of the Wander Hogan that may help someone figure out how to build that design.

Thanks for sharing the nice book... I'll get it in the mail back to you ASAP
