Has someone plan-ahead-designs Shay drawings?

Post by arttechnics »

Hi All,

I had some short correspondence with Rick last year, but unfortunately I was unable to purchase these drawings from him. Can someone help me with how I could contact the designer or is there a way to buy these drawings from someone. Both Shay models would be interested!

2. http://www.plan-ahead-designs.com/122/122.htm

Many thanks your help!

I have a set of Plan Ahead Designs WM6 plans that I would be willing to sell, send a PM if interested.

As for the Bill Harris 2-1/2" scale Mich-Cal those plans are sold by Ken Hemmelgarn see here for some old info:
