Anyone have a source for plans or just the bracing info and dimensions of the bodies on these critters? Concert size preferably but tenor and soprano info would also be great.
I don't see how drawing up a set of plans is all that difficult. I use a pencil, ruler, set squares and paper.
What I did was blow up the excellent photos in Jim Beloff's book and then using known dimensions scaled up the pics. No-one is trying to yank your chain here...

Vic...Wow, thank you!
You have gone right to the head of the class, way beyond me as most pompous, most snarky in all of lutheriedom!
I was tempted to comment to the effect that it might just be appropriate to be able to draw before building, but...
COME ON NOW!!!!!
I'm gonna say this and upset a few people - the internet and free exchange of information has raised the expectations of too many of us. Like people who constantly demand that I reload deleted videos from my YouTube channel or, as in the case here, expect and I mean that, expect free information instead of doing the hard bit and working it out for themselves as demonstarted by our good friend Aaron Keim. I actually thought I was being helpful when out of laziness all you wanted was the answer, gratis. I'm getting pretty fed up with your peevish outbursts Vic and cannot understand them.
FYI, I don't have a printer but my library does and an hour of my time with a steel rule and plenty of 20p pieces (I guess quarters are the US currency equivalent) enabled me to work out the percentage enlargement etc... I then spent half a day working on the drawings, investing time in understanding the problem and design constraints as you should have before expecting a free handout here. If after so doing you couldn't get any further you should then have asked for help and had the decency to recognise it when it was given - true help that will enable you to get a purer understanding of the problem. It's how I have learnt, not by standing on the shoulders of giants or epxecting handouts from them but working out how they got to be that way then aspiring to their greateness. Honestly mate, you really do bite the hand that feeds don't you?
